Fiorentina showed interest in signing Woyo Coulibaly as a potential replacement for Dodò, with plans to engage in a swap deal involving the Italian defender Kayode. However, negotiations between Fiorentina and Parma did not result in an agreement on the transfer terms, causing the deal to fall through. Despite this, Parma considered Kayode as a possible successor to Coulibaly.

Woyo Coulibaly's contract with Parma expires in 2025, and he is expected to renew it. However, if complications arise or the management suspects his intention to leave for free in the summer, he might be let go. Fiorentina has shown interest by exploring a loan swap with Michael Kayode, who wants more playing time than he currently has at Fiorentina.

Woyo Coulibaly may join Fiorentina as part of a loan swap deal involving Michael Kayode, who would move to Parma. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, this potential swap is being considered by Fiorentina as they look to make strategic adjustments in their squad during the January transfer window. Michael Kayode, currently limited in playing opportunities by Dodò on the right flank, could find more space at Parma, while Woyo Coulibaly would strengthen Fiorentina's defensive options.
