Fritz on Coulibaly: how Werder are planning with their defensive gem

At just 18 years old, central defender Karim Coulibaly has already secured a regular spot at Werder Bremen. Accordingly, there is significant interest from competitors in the young talent.

Clemens Fritz, the director of professional football at Bremen, is also aware of this: "It's always the case that when young players establish themselves early, other clubs take notice – we already know that," the former professional explained to 'kicker'.

Fritz did not comment on specific offers. However, Eintracht Frankfurt is reportedly already keeping an eye on Coulibaly.
