Strasbourg reach agreement to sign Borussia Dortmund's Soumaïla Coulibaly
Fabrizio Romano reports that Racing Club de Strasbourg Alsace have reached an agreement with Borussia Dortmund to sign Soumaïla Coulibaly (21) for €7.5m. The Frenchman, who spent last season on loan at fellow Ligue 1 side Stade Brest, will sign a five-year contract until 2030. Borussia Dortmund recalled Coulibaly from his loan spell at Brest and is a part of the squad that is partaking in the FIFA Club World Cup. However, the central-defender is only a bit-part player in Niko Kovač's squad and is yet to make an appearance in the US. Advertisement Coulibaly joined Borussia Dortmund from Paris Saint-Germain in 2021 after impressing for the Parisien club's youth teams, rejecting a move to Marseille and Bayern Munich in favour of Dortmund. A loan spell at Standard Liege followed while a move to Burnley collapsed last summer, which paved the way for Brest to sign the defender on a season-long loan deal, which resulted in Champions League football.
