Ousmane Coulibaly (born 9 July 1989) is a professional former footballer who plays as a defender. Born in France, he represented Mali at international level. His brother is the professional kickboxer, multiple champion of France and world champion, Abdarhmane Coulibaly.

Career

[edit]

In August 2014, Coulibaly signed a three-year contract with Superleague side Platanias for an undisclosed fee.[1] He played exceptionally well for two consecutive years, therefore was monitored by several Greek top clubs, as well as German and English clubs.[2][3]

On 30 August 2016, Coulibaly moved to Panathinaikos for an estimated amount of €250,000 signing a three-season contract with the club. He was expected to be the backup of experienced Italian Giandomenico Mesto.[4][5] On 11 January 2018, Mechelen filed an offer to the financially struggling Greens for the acquisition of Coulibaly in the range of €200,000.[6] The player asked to be excluded from the first-team squad on 16 April 2018 due to Panathinaikos being in a dire financial and administrative state,[7] and two weeks later, he filed an official request to leave Panathinaikos on a free transfer.[8]

On 8 January 2022, in the first half of the Qatar Stars League match between Al-Rayyan and Al-Wakrah, Coulibaly suffered a heart attack and was taken to hospital. He was in a stable condition per a statement from his club.[9][10]
