Issa Doumbia, born on 16 October 2003 (age 22), is an Italian central midfielder with Venezia. His market value is around £7m, according to Transfermarkt.
His career has been shaped more by AlbinoLeffe than anywhere else. Across three seasons there, he made 78 league appearances and scored four goals, giving him the regular senior football that still frames his profile. It was not a glamorous route, but it was a useful one.
At Venezia, Doumbia has been a regular first-team presence in 2025-26 and has found more end product. He has made 36 league appearances and scored seven times in Serie B, his most productive league season so far. Across all competitions for Venezia, he has 38 appearances and nine goals, including two in a single Coppa Italia outing.
He was linked with a move to Celtic in May 2026 while at Venezia. For now, Doumbia remains a developing midfielder whose senior career is still anchored by AlbinoLeffe, with his Venezia spell adding a stronger attacking return and keeping him relevant in the current side.
