Issa Doumbia, born on 16 October 2003 (age 22), is an Italian centre midfielder now with Sporting CP. His market value is around £7m, according to Transfermarkt.
His career to this point has been shaped mainly by AlbinoLeffe, where he made 78 league appearances across three seasons and scored four league goals. That spell gave him the bulk of his senior grounding, rather than serving as a passing footnote.
Doumbia’s best scoring return came at Venezia in 2025–26, when he made 37 league appearances and scored eight goals. That was the season that added a sharper attacking edge to a profile previously built more on regular midfield minutes.
He was linked with a move to Celtic in May 2026 while at Sporting CP. For now, his career reads as a developing midfielder whose main body of work remains AlbinoLeffe, with Venezia providing the most productive league season of his career so far.
