Italian football expert Gianluca Di Marzio has confirmed that a deal has been finalized between Leicester City and Parma for the transfer of right-back Woyo Coulibaly. The 25-year-old, born in France, holds dual nationality with French and Malian passports.

Coulibaly joined Parma in 2021 under Enzo Maresca, signing from French side Le Havre. Since then, he has played a key role in helping Parma secure promotion back to Serie A. This season, he has featured in 14 league matches and contributed one assist.

While Di Marzio has provided the confirmation, Fabrizio Romano has not yet commented on this transfer.

Romano has instead focused on other Leicester targets, confirming that two players, Abdukodir Khusanov (Lens) and Cesare Casadei (Chelsea), are likely on the move this January.

However, it appears neither will end up at Leicester, as other clubs are better positioned to sign them. Manchester City is reportedly interested in Khusanov, while Torino is pursuing Casadei.

As for potential departures from Leicester, rumors suggest that the club might be open to offers for Abdul Fatawu.

Manchester United is said to be monitoring the young player, with current United manager Ruben Amorim, who sold Fatawu to Leicester, already familiar with his abilities.

Additionally, speculation around Hamza Choudhury potentially joining Sheffield United on loan has quieted in recent days, but the move remains a possibility.

Goalkeeper Daniel Iversen is another player linked with a January exit, though this is unlikely to happen until Mads Hermansen is fully fit to return to action.
