Club career

[edit]

Early career

[edit]

Having joined the Stade Rennais as an eight years old,[2][3] Guéla Doué was part of a 2002 generation comprising the likes of Eduardo Camavinga, Brandon Soppy and Georginio Rutter.[4] He began playing with Rennes National 3 reserves in 2020–21.[5]

The young defender signed his first professional contract with the club on 18 November 2021.[6][5][7] His progress through the 2021–22 season was however halted by a serious injury,[2][6][8] making his way back with the reserve only in May 2022, still managing to help them winning promotion to the National 2 after only narrowly topping the Brittany group.[9][10][11]

Rennes

[edit]

Doué made his first team debut during the 2022 summer friendlies, joining his brother Désiré on the field against Caen.[12]

Having already appeared several times on the bench in Ligue 1 under Bruno Génésio's management, on 17 January 2023 Guéla extended his contract with the club until 2025.[2][4][13]

He made his senior debut with Rennes in a 3–0 league win over Strasbourg on 1 February 2023, coming in as a late substitute for his younger brother, who had just became the youngest ever player to deliver an assist and score a goal in a Ligue 1 game.[14][15][16]

Strasbourg

[edit]

On 26 July 2024, Doué joined Strasbourg by signing a contract until 2029.[17]

International career

[edit]

Born in France, Doué is Ivorian by descent.[18] He was called up to the Ivory Coast U23s for a set of matches in March 2023.[19]

Doué made his debut for the senior Ivory Coast national team on 23 March 2024 in a friendly against Benin.[20]

Three days later, he scored his first national team goal, the winner in the 84th minute in a 2–1 friendly victory over Uruguay.[21]
