If his departure has not yet been confirmed, Alexandre Mendy has not hidden his desires elsewhere in recent days, stating in particular that his head was at Sunderland where a new adventure in the Championship could await him. The Norman leaders have therefore found themselves obliged to anticipate a probable departure of their star number 9 at the end of the transfer window, and according to information from Benjamin Quarez, journalist of the Parisien, a new offensive element would therefore be about to commit to the SM Caen.
It would be about Kalifa Coulibaly. Having left QRM for free this summer, the 33-year-old striker went through Genk and Red Star Belgrade where he discovered the Champions League and the Europa League, then through Nantes where he played 99 matches. Ligue 1 for 26 goals and 6 assists. He is just coming off a full season in Ligue 2 under the orders of Jean-Louis Garcia (30 matches, 12 goals and 4 assists) despite the relegation of his former club to the National. Experienced and with interesting statistics, he could represent a real plus for Nicolas Seube’s offensive line which has not yet unlocked its counter after two days.
