Lecce have begun exploring the possibility of signing Lassana Coulibaly from Salernitana as they look to strengthen their midfield for the upcoming season. The Salento-based club has made initial contact regarding the potential transfer of the Malian midfielder.
According to Sky Sport Italia journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, Coulibaly, who has been a consistent performer for Salernitana, caught Lecce’s attention with his solid displays in Serie A last season. The 27-year-old featured in 28 matches, providing one assist and showcasing his ability to contribute both defensively and in transition play.
Lecce’s interest in Coulibaly stems from their desire to bolster their midfield options. The club believes that Coulibaly’s experience in Serie A and his physical presence could significantly enhance their squad depth and quality in the central areas of the pitch.
While discussions are still in the early stages, Lecce’s approach signals their intent to be proactive in the transfer market. The potential acquisition of Coulibaly would align with the club’s strategy of bringing in proven Serie A talent to help consolidate their position in the top flight.
