Squad depthBall-winning Defensive midfielder

I. Coulibaly is a 25-year-old defensive midfielder at Lask Linz, rated 39.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 104th of 207 on scout potential in the Bundesliga. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (37.9% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.46 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Coulibaly.

Judged on this season alone, Coulibaly graded 11 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 41st of 47 of the 47 defensive midfielders in the Bundesliga, on 0 goals, 0 assists and 4.455 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 10 → 11). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 39, 25th of 47 of the 47 defensive midfielders in the Bundesliga. At 25 Coulibaly is in his prime years, and a market index of 7.6 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

4.46 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 12) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.46 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 37.9% 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 39.2, Coulibaly carries the 25th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Bundesliga of 47. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.46 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
