Soumaïla Coulibaly
B29Season over
Coulibaly (leg) will not feature in Sunday's season finale against Angers, bringing his campaign to a premature end due to the reactivated tibial stress fracture, according to Ouest France.
Analysis: Coulibaly ends the season with 14 tackles, 14 interceptions and 75 clearances across 16 Ligue 1 appearances, having been a reliable defensive presence when available before the stress fracture resurfaced. Coach Eric Roy had expressed hope of having him back on the pitch before the end of the campaign, but the delicate nature of the tibial stress fracture ultimately made his involvement impossible, with the club prioritizing his long-term health over any last-minute return.
Suffers stress fracture
Coulibaly (leg) is ruled out of Sunday's clash against PSG after reactivating a tibial stress fracture he suffered last season, according to coach Eric Roy, per Le Telegramme. "He reactivated a stress fracture in his tibia that he had last year. It would be good if he could get back on the pitch before going on holiday, so he doesn't leave as an injured player."
Analysis: Coulibaly had already missed the Paris FC fixture and his absence is set to continue into the PSG clash, with Junior Diaz expected to step in to replace him. The tibial stress fracture is a delicate injury that requires careful management, and Brest will not rush him back before he is fully ready despite the coach's hopes of having him available for one of the final two fixtures of the campaign.
