Odilon Kossounou began at the ASEC Mimosas academy in Abidjan and was spotted at the 2016 Gothia Cup in Sweden, leading to a move to Hammarby. A record sale took him to Club Brugge, where he won back-to-back Belgian titles, before a 23 million euro transfer to Bayer Leverkusen, with whom he won the 2023-24 Bundesliga and DFB-Pokal double. Now at Atalanta, the tall, sharp-tackling centre-back started Ivory Coast's victorious 2023 AFCON final and is a defensive mainstay at the World Cup.
- Started the 2023 AFCON final as Ivory Coast beat Nigeria
- Won the 2023-24 Bundesliga and DFB-Pokal with Bayer Leverkusen
