Injured in the ankle at the start of the season, he then contented himself with a few ends of the match (8 appearances in Ligue 1, 361 small minutes of play) and was no longer in the plans of Roberto de Zerbi.

“We wanted this player, he is very strong, he is a good boy, but we know our goals. We know what team we want. I have in mind what I want. In recent months, he has not shown me that he was able to be part of this project. He has a lot of competition. Koné is on the start. Koné will probably go, which is why there was no sense that he can train with us ”had explained, to everyone's surprise, the Italian manager before the shock against Nice (0-2).
