Steven Gerrard is looking to get his side ready for next season in his first summer as a senior manager.
The former Liverpool man has already brought in Jon Flanagan, centre-backs Nikola Katic and Connor Goldson, and goalkeeper Allan McGregor.
And now he wants to add Angers midfielder Coulibaly, according to The Scottish Sun.
Coulibaly, 22, would need a work permit if he were to move to Ibrox having been capped nine times by Mali.
He helped Angers to a 14th placed finish in France’s top tier last season as they finished six points above the relegation zone.
Gerrard has not spoke about Coulibaly though was recently coy on many transfer rumours.
He said: “Brandon Barker [of Manchester City] is speculation.
“There’s not enough room for all the wingers we’ve been linked with — Ryan Kent, Harry Wilson, [Brandon] Barker and Jordan Jones.
“I don’t know how I’d fit them all in. I’m a fan of all the names, but it’s speculation. Dominic Solanke? Ben Woodburn? Also speculation. But we need more forward options.
“The priority initially was in the defensive areas. We needed bodies in the centre of defence, and needed to give support in the full-back areas.
“There’s a group of names we’re monitoring and assessing in the forward areas.”
