Red Bull Salzburg

In August 2015, Samassékou signed a four-year contract with Red Bull Salzburg, initially joining their farm team FC Liefering.[2] During the 2017–18 season Salzburg had their best ever European campaign.

Hoffenheim

On 15 August 2019, Hoffenheim announced the signing of Samassékou on a five-year deal.[5]

International career

Samassékou represented Mali at youth level at the 2015 FIFA U-20 World Cup[6] and the 2016 Toulon Tournament. He made his debut for the senior team in a 3–1 friendly win against China PR on 29 June 2014.[7]
