Olympiacos
[edit | edit source]In July 2014, Dossevi signed for the Greek champions Olympiakos, for an undisclosed fee.[3][4]
While former manager Michel had been reluctant to play him regularly, new manager Vítor Pereira used him twice in a row in the starting line-up and Dossevi proved his quality by scoring against both Skoda Xanthi and Panetolikos in the Super League Greece.[5]

Toulouse
[edit | edit source]On 3 August 2018, Dossevi signed for Toulouse on a two-year contract, having been the third best passer of the previous season behind Neymar and Florian Thauvin. The transfer fee paid to Standard Liège was reported as €2.5 million.[10] He left the club upon the expiration of his contract and following Toulouse's relegation from Ligue 1 at the end of the 2019–20 season.
