In a three-hour meeting on Tuesday, manager Simone Inzaghi spoke with club officials, including chairman Steven Zhang, about their goals for the transfer market.
According to Corriere dello Sport, they are now primarily focused on bringing Koulibaly back to Serie A in addition to other objectives.
The announcement follows a report from Sky Sport Italia that Chelsea representatives will meet with sports director Piero Ausilio in London soon.
Milan Skriniar, who confirmed a pre-contract agreement with Paris Saint-Germain back in January, will be replaced by the Champions League champions quickly.
While Chelsea slipped to 12th place this season, Koulibaly failed to maintain consistency, but in eight years at Napoli, he developed into one of the best defenders in the world.
Additionally, the third-placed Nerazzurri in Serie A are rumored to be considering extending Romelu Lukaku's loan from the Blues.
The Belgian striker scored 14 goals this season despite receiving criticism for his performance against Manchester City the previous weekend, including the goal that helped his team go past Porto in the round of 16 on their way to Istanbul.
The former Serie A champion has stated his desire to remain at the San Siro, although Chelsea would welcome his return for the next campaign.

The addition of Koulibaly, even if just on loan, would be a significant victory for Inter in their fight to win back the Scudetto during what might be a hectic summer for them.
Koulibaly, though, published an Instagram message two weeks ago that seemed to suggest he envisaged his near future at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea supporters, he claimed. Your assistance has been a bright spot for us all during a trying time. There are no excuses; everything we do on the field is for you. This season, it was nowhere near enough.
We'll battle to restore your pride, and I won't give up until we succeed. It's currently 2023–2024. Thank you, and I'll talk to you soon.
