It is a colossal offer that would have received the DFCO. According to the newspaper L’Equipe, the Mexican club of Leon offers 1.2 million euros to win the services of Senou Coulibaly, a 27-year-old player.
Arrived at the DFCO at the beginning of summer 2018 from the amateur world, the Dijon central defender has played 40 matches in Ligue 1 for a total of three goals scored. Present during the catastrophic season of the descent in Ligue 2, the Malian player remained a starter this year by playing thirty games and twice shook the opposing nets.
Today, it would be according to L’Equipe “the priority recruit” of this Mexican first division club which has won its national championship eight times. The last time was during the 2020/2021 season. A record that could seduce the Dijon defender.
An experienced player, who is growing in power
For the moment the No. 5 of the Reds is under contract until 2024, since its extension last October. His perseverance even allowed him to be selected for the African Cup of Nations at the start of 2022, although a substitute. Sometimes criticized for its irregularity, the DFCO certainly still needs him to strengthen his defense. As a reminder, no player has officially left Dijon since the start of the summer transfer window (except Bruno Ecuele Manga and Erwan Belhadji whose contracts have not been renewed). The DFCO does not wish to comment on this substantial proposal at this time.
