Yacouba Nasser Djiga (born 15 November 2002) is a Burkinabé professional footballer who plays as a defender for Serbian club Red Star Belgrade and the Burkina Faso national team.[2][3]

Club career

Djiga played his youth football with Vitesse FC in Burkina Faso.[4] After having received various call-ups to their first team and having made his team debut during the last games of the 2018–19 season, he advanced to their squad in the 2019–20 season. Djiga played 14 games for them, scoring one goal, in the Deuxième Division the second tier of football in Burkina Faso. Despite the season remaining uncompleted due to the COVID-19 pandemic, because the team were league leaders, they won promotion to the Burkinabé Premier League. In the following season Djiga was regular starter in the team. He received a calls-up to the Burkina Faso U20 team and played four games for them in the 2021 Africa U-20 Cup of Nations.[citation needed]

During the transfer window in the summer of 2021, Djiga signed for Swiss top flight side FC Basel after receiving interest from Lille OSC in the French Ligue 1 and Belgian and Spanish clubs.[5] Basel announced his signing on 19 June.[6]

After having played in five test games, on 29 July 2021 Djiga debuted for FC Basel's first team during a 2–0 away win over Partizani in the second qualifying round of the 2021–22 UEFA Europa Conference League.[7] Unfortunately Djiga injured himself during the game and was forced out for six weeks with a capsular ligament injury in the left ankle.[8] He returned to the team on 19 September to play the Swiss Cup match against armature team FC Rorschach-Goldach.[9]

On 24 October Djiga then played his Swiss Super League debut for his new club in the home game at St. Jakob-Park as Basel won 2–0 against Lugano and he played the entire game.[10]

On 28 August 2022, Djiga joined Nîmes in France on a season-long loan.[11]

International career

Djiga debuted for the Burkina Faso national team in a 5–0 friendly loss to Kosovo on 24 March 2022.[12]
