Sékou Koïta (born 28 November 1999) is a Malian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Russian Premier League club CSKA Moscow and the Mali national team.

Club career

On 8 January 2018, Koïta moved to Wolfsberger AC on loan from Red Bull Salzburg.[3] On 18 December 2019, Koïta extended his contract with Red Bull Salzburg until the summer of 2024.[4]

On 18 February 2021, Koïta was suspended for three months of all club and international football activities by UEFA, following a doping investigation conducted by UEFA on which Koïta tested positive.[5] Koita was prescribed medicine to combat altitude sickness that contained a substance on the banned list. In its verdict, UEFA ruled that in this case there was no intentional violation of doping rules, but the rules stipulate that every player is personally responsible for ensuring that no banned substances enter their body.[6]

On 8 July 2024, Koïta signed a three-year contract with CSKA Moscow in the Russian Premier League.[7]

International career

[edit]

Sékou Koïta won the U-17 Africa Cup of Nations in 2015 with the Mali Under-17 team. He scored two goals in this tournament. The Malian selection scores a total of ten goals, and finishes the competition by being undefeated. This is the very first time Mali has won an African championship title.[8]

Sékou Koïta subsequently participates in the 2015 FIFA U-17 World Cup held in Chile. In the world, he plays seven games, scoring two goals. He scored a goal in the quarterfinals against Croatia, which proved to be the only goal of the match. He then scored a goal against Belgium in the semi-final (victory 3-1). Mali is bowing in the final against Nigeria with two goals to zero.

In 2016, Sékou Koïta competes with Mali for the African Nations Championship held in Rwanda. His presence in this competition was due to the N'Tji Samaké package, in which doctors diagnosed a heart condition the day before the competition.[9] He plays six games in this tournament,[10] scoring a goal against Uganda in the first round.[11] Mali reached the final of the competition, being defeated by the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

With those under 20 years of age, he participated twice in the U-20 Africa Cup of Nations, in 2017 and then in 2019. In the 2017 edition in Zambia, he plays three games, scoring a goal against Guinea. With an unfortunate record of one draw, two losses and nine goals cashed, Mali does not exceed the first round of the tournament. In the 2019 edition held in Niger, he plays five games. Mali won the competition this time, beating Senegal in the final, after a shoot-out at the goal.
