Soumaila Coulibaly
22-Year-Old
Brest
Ligue 1
OUT
Injury Thigh
Est. Return 2/20/2026
Expected to train next week
Coulibaly (thigh) is expected to return to team training next week, coach Eric Roy said in the press conference, according to Nicolas Blanzat from Ici Breizh.
ANALYSIS
Coulibaly trained on his own this week as he continues to work back from a thigh injury and is expected to rejoin full team sessions next week, putting him on track to return for the Ti-Zefs. The center-back is a locked-in starter in the heart of the defense, so his absence leaves a real gap on the back line. In the meantime, Junior Diaz is in line to pick up increased minutes and take advantage of the opportunity.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Chelsea want him
Chelsea are interested in signing Coulibaly, according to Sky Sports.
ANALYSIS
Chelsea have held talks with Borussia Dortmund over a potential deal for the 21-year-old center-back. Dortmund aren't keen on parting ways with the defender, but it wouldn't be surprising if Chelsea end up signing him to a long-term deal on the same scheme they've acquired other youngsters in recent years. The French center-back is likely to be sent on loan to Strasbourg if he ends up moving to Stamford Bridge.
