Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Coulibaly.
Judged on this season alone, Coulibaly graded 7 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 49th of 51 of the 51 centre-backs in the Allsvenskan, on 1 clean sheet and 3.476 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 29, 26th of 51 of the 51 centre-backs in the Allsvenskan. At 24 Coulibaly is in his prime years, and a market index of 3.7 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · IFK Varnamo finished 16th of 16 · a relegation-threatened side
3.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 11 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (16th of 16) 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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 26.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 28.6, Coulibaly carries the 26th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Allsvenskan of 51 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
