The Ligue-1 club has been a member of the Blueco investor alliance around Todd Boehly for two years and benefits from this collaboration. The Coulibaly, which was still under contract by 2026, had returned to Dortmund a month earlier than planned from his loan to Stade Brest 29 in order to be able to slide into the line-up for the club.

Is there a degree at Coulibaly? “Dortmund should only let you talk if we can keep Chukwuemeka for another year, including the purchase option over 30 million. Otherwise we do not have to make concessions,” says TM user and BVB fan “Derjones”. “Coulibaly is now not a personnel where you can stand as a BVB and make massive demands,” says “Sch3lst”.
If I would also go down as a coulibal, he will surely get a contract offer from Chelsea that will reach into the 1930s like every player. Especially with his injury background, (financial) securing your own career is certainly high in the agenda. Strasbourg is an ambitious association in France, which still plays in an international competition in summer. …
