Kassoum Ouattara (born 14 October 2004) is a French professional footballer who plays as a left-back for Ligue 1 club Monaco.[1]

Club career

On 7 July 2022, Ouattara signed his first professional contract for Amiens, a deal until 2025.[2] He made his debut in a 3–1 Ligue 2 defeat to Bastia on 20 August 2022.[1][3] In the second half of the 2022–23 season, he became a regular starter, starting ten of nineteen matches before an injury ended his season.[4][5]

On 1 November 2023, Ouattara signed a five-year contract with Ligue 1 club AS Monaco,[6] for a reported fee of €2 million, which could rise to €4 million with add-ons.[7][8] The move was a "joker" transfer, following Caio Henrique's long-term injury.[7][9]

Born in France with Ivorian descent, Ouattara is eligible to represent both France and Ivory Coast at international level.[10] He made his debut for the France under-19s in March 2023.[11][12]
