Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Coulibaly.
Judged on this season alone, Coulibaly graded 24 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 29th of 52 of the 52 centre-backs in the Bundesliga, on 4 clean sheets and 2.842 defensive actions per 90.
We hold a single season for Coulibaly, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 79, top 12% of the 52 centre-backs in the Bundesliga. At 19 Coulibaly is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 105.2 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Coulibaly missed 3 games through injury and 1 suspension (thigh) out of roughly 34 this season. The 27 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
2.84 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 27 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th of 18) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 79.2, Coulibaly carries the 6th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Bundesliga (top 12%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Werder Bremen finished 15th of 18) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.84 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 19 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (99/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 19, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~132), then tapers with age. At 19, Coulibaly sits on 105.2, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Coulibaly's projected Rating — 79.2 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
