Bernard Allou (born 19 June 1975) is a former professional footballer who played as a winger. He most notably played for Paris Saint-Germain, Nagoya Grampus Eight and Nottingham Forest. The highlight of this time at PSG was playing as they won the 1995 Coupe de la Ligue Final against Bastia.[1] Born in Ivory Coast, he represented France at youth level.
Allou was born in Cocody, Ivory Coast.
In 1997, he had a trial at Newcastle United but it did not lead to a contract.[2] In March 1999, Allou signed for Nottingham Forest and went on to make two appearances in the remainder of that season, as Forest were relegated from the Premier League. The following season, he scored two goals for Forest; one against Mansfield Town in the League Cup[3] and one against Wolverhampton Wanderers in the league.[4]
Allou played for the France under-21 team between 1994 and 1997 and the France under-20 team at the 1996 Toulon Tournament.[5] [6] [7] [8]
