Galaxy sign French defender Séga Coulibaly to bolster roster

The MLS season is already two games old, but the Galaxy continue to build out their roster, signing French defender Séga Coulibaly to a two-year contract Wednesday while moving closer to a deal with forward Augustine Williams.

Coulibaly, 24, a former French youth international, played a career-high 22 games for Nancy of the second-tier Ligue 2 this season. The financial terms of his deal with the Galaxy were not released.

Coulibaly, who was born in Mali but has French citizenship, is the third French player to sign with the Galaxy this winter, following wingers Samuel Grandsir, 24, and Kévin Cabral, 21.
