Leicester City Transfer News: Woyo Coulibaly

Leicester City are ready to listen to offers for 27-year-old right-back Woyo Coulibaly, according to The72. Coulibaly has three years left on his contract with the Foxes, having joined from Parma in the winter of 2025.

Coulibaly spent last season on loan with Sassuolo, where he played in Serie A. The right-back has also played in the Premier League and Serie A, and has experience in the second tiers of France and Italy.

The72 reported that Coulibaly's situation is similar to that of Stephy Mavididi and Wout Faes, who have both been linked with departures from the club. Pete O'Rourke said, 'He states Stephy Mavididi and Wout Faes, whose situations have already been made clear, are in the same boat.'

What the Fee Means for the Summer Budget

Leicester City's transfer window closes on September 1st, and the club will be looking to strengthen their squad ahead of the new season. With Coulibaly potentially available, the Foxes may be able to bring in a new right-back without breaking the bank.

Where He Fits in the Current Squad

Coulibaly's departure would leave a gap in the right-back position, but the club has other options available. Harry Souttar is valued at £10m, while Oliver Skipp is valued at £12m. Stephy Mavididi is valued at £6m, and all three players have contracts that run until 2029.

What This Means for the Squad

Leicester City are currently 23rd in the Championship, with 46 points from 46 games. They have scored 58 goals and conceded 68, giving them a -10 goal difference. The Foxes are 49 points behind leaders Coventry, and will be looking to improve their form in the new season.

Recent form has been positive, with three wins in a row. The last result was a 1-0 win over Blackburn on May 2nd. The Foxes will be looking to build on this momentum and push up the table.

What's Next for the Club

With the transfer window closing on September 1st, Leicester City will be looking to finalize their squad ahead of the new season. The club has a number of options available, and will be looking to strengthen their squad in key areas.

According to The72, Leicester City are open to offers for Woyo Coulibaly, who has three years left on his contract. The right-back has experience in the Premier League and Serie A, and has played in the second tiers of France and Italy.
