Ibrahim Sulemana

Ibrahim Sulemana of Bologna was born in Sunyani, Ghana on 22 May 2003 (age 22).

Ibrahim Sulemana, born on 22 May 2003 in Ghana, is identified as a dynamic force in the world of football. At the age of 22, this midfield maestro has made his mark particularly as a central defensive midfielder, utilising his skills on the field for Atalanta. Standing at approximately 5ft 10in tall (1.8m) and carrying weight of around 12st 3lb (78kg), he proudly dons the number 6 jersey for his club.

According to Transfermarkt, this young starlet carries a current market value of around €7.00m, which converts to roughly £5.8m, demonstrating his rising profile within the football industry. Check for more details at Transfermarkt.

In July 2022, Sulemana embarked on a new adventure, transferring from Atalanta, a reputable club in the Serie A league in Italy, to Hellas Verona, also in Serie A. Although the transfer fee remains undisclosed to the public's eye, his debut season (2022 - 2023) at Hellas Verona saw him taking the field in 16 first team league matches.

Sulemana's journey in Italian football continued as he moved from Hellas Verona to Cagliari, another Serie A team, in July 2023 for a fee of approximately £3.5m. His performance during the 2023 - 2024 season at Cagliari saw him making 21 first team appearances and scoring two goals in league matches.

Moving forward, in July 2024, Sulemana found himself returning to his former hunting ground Atalanta, for a fee of roughly £6.3m. During the 2024 - 2025 season at Atalanta, he took the field in nine first team appearances and scored two goals in league matches. However, in the current season (2025 - 2026), Sulemana has yet to make a first team appearance in league matches.
