Yvann Konan, OL goalkeeper @DR
Initially retained with the Ivory Coast U20s, Yvann Konan will finally have his first meeting with the A. The OL goalkeeper was called up to replace the injured Badra Ali.
He had already made a strong impression during the Maurice Revello tournament at the beginning of the summer. Voted best goalkeeper of the competition with the Ivory Coast U20s, Yvann Konan had a rather auspicious start to July with the start of preparation with the professional group ofOL. This notably allowed him to train alongside Lucas Perri and Anthony Lopes, as during the friendly against Torino at Bourgoin (0-0). Just 17 years old, the goalkeeper is upgraded and has been playing since the start of the season with the Lyon U19s. Selected for this October gathering with the U20s of the Ivory CoastKonan was due to play in the U20 qualifiers for CAN 2025.

Finally, he will play in the qualifiers for the African Cup of Nations, but on the floor above. Even two floors, you could say. Because it is not the Hopes group, but rather the A group that Yvann Konan joined in the last few hours. The OL goalkeeper was called in to reinforce the Elephants to compensate for the injury Badra Ali. If he will certainly not honor a first cape, Konan will at least experience his first gathering. All at only 17 years old.
