AS Nancy’s Karim Coulibaly Out for Several Weeks with Ankle Fracture
Nancy, France — AS Nancy-Lorraine will begin the Ligue 2 season without midfielder Karim Coulibaly, after the young Franco-Senegalese player suffered a fractured ankle during Tuesday’s Coupe de la Ligue win over Le Havre.
Coulibaly was injured in the 2-1 victory, and medical assessments have confirmed he will be sidelined for several weeks, leaving a notable gap in Nancy’s midfield ahead of the new campaign.
Born in Bakel, Senegal, Coulibaly joined AS Nancy in 2008 from US Villejuif and has since been regarded as a promising talent. He has also represented France at youth international levels, showcasing his potential on a wider stage.
The club and fans will be hoping for a swift recovery, as Coulibaly’s absence will be felt both on and off the pitch.
