Alexandre Serge Coeff (born 20 February 1992) is a French professional footballer who plays as a centre back or defensive midfielder for Indian Super League club Kerala Blasters.[2]

Club career

Youth career

Born in Brest, Coeff previously had stints with Plouzane Athletic, Stade Brestois 29, Guilers and Cavale Blanche Brest.

Lens

Coeff joined RC Lens' youth setup in 2008, aged 16. On 10 October 2008, he signed his first professional contract, agreeing to a three-year deal with Lens.[3] A rupture of both the medial collateral ligament and anterior cruciate ligament in one of his knees delayed his professional career and, after successfully undergoing rehabilitation, he spent two years playing on the club's reserve team in the Championnat de France amateur, the fourth division of French football.[4][5]

On 29 May 2011, Coeff made his professional debut, appearing as a substitute in a 0–4 away defeat to AS Nancy.[6] After being sparingly used during the 2011–12 campaign, he appeared regularly in 2012–13, playing in 37 league matches and scoring once.

Udinese

On 13 July 2013, Coeff signed a five-year deal with Udinese Calcio.[7] A day later, he was loaned to Granada CF, in a season-long deal.[8]

Gazélec Ajaccio

On 4 August 2015, Coeff joined to Ligue 1 club Gazélec Ajaccio.[9]

Brest

In July 2016, Coeff returned to France, and signed a two-year loan contract with Ligue 2 side Brest.[10]

AEL

On 11 September 2018, Coeff moved to the Greek Superleague, joining AEL on a two-year deal.[11] On 3 November 2018, he scored his first goal for the club, opening the score in a 1–1 away draw against Levadiakos.[12]

Return to Gazélec Ajaccio

On 18 January 2019, he signed a two-year contract with Gazélec Ajaccio.[13]

Brescia

On 1 February 2023, Coeff signed with Brescia in Italian Serie B.[14]

SM Caen

On 25 July 2023, he signed with French club Stade Malherbe Caen in Ligue 2.

Kerala Blasters FC

On 24 July 2024, the Indian Super League club Kerala Blasters FC announced the signing on Coeff on a one-year deal.[15] He made his debut for the club on 23 August in a 1–0 loss against Bengaluru FC in the 2024 Durand Cup quarter final by coming as a substitute in the 63rd minute.[16] Coeff made his first league appearance against Punjab FC on 15 September, which ended in a 1–2 defeat for the Blasters, where he played the entire 90 minutes.[17]

International career

Born in France, Coeff is of Algerian descent through his maternal grandmother.[18] He is a France youth international, having earned caps from the under-16 to the under-21 levels.
