'Not a single transfer has helped build an infrastructure here' - why a prolific team in Ivory Coast feels left behind
Thirteen years ago, Ivory Coast was tearing itself apart. In its second civil war, the current president, Alassane Ouattara, whose name is given to the stadium that will host the final of the Africa Cup of Nations on Sunday, controlled much of the south of the country from his rebel stronghold in Abobo, a settlement in the north of Abidjan.
Gbagbo was removed in April 2011 when a mix of French and UN forces broke into his presidential palace and arrested him. Much has changed in Ivory Coast since, with the economy surging, though Ouattara has emerged as another strongman who in October 2023 demonstrated his power by removing his prime minister before dissolving parliament. The decision was largely unchallenged.
has not gone to plan for him, however. After being included in the starting XI in each of Ivory Coast’s group games, he has not featured at all since a chastening 4-0 defeat by Equatorial Guinea, a result that led to the sacking of Jean-Louis Gasset and left the nation relying on other results to ensure progress to the knockout rounds. There are academies in Ivory Coast that have formal relationships with clubs in Europe but Olympique Abobo is not one of them.
