Club career
Lens
Kondogbia was born in Nemours, Seine-et-Marne of Central African descent, joining RC Lens' youth system at the age of 11. On 11 April 2010 he signed his first professional contract, agreeing to a four-year deal.[4] On 21 November he made his debut in Ligue 1, appearing as a substitute against Olympique Lyonnais.[5]
Kondogbia spent the 2011–12 season in Ligue 2 after the Sang et Or's relegation. He scored his only official goal for the team on 13 April 2012, netting the opener in a 3–0 success at Tours FC.[6]
Sevilla
On 24 July 2012, Kondogbia signed with Spanish club Sevilla FC for an undisclosed fee, believed to be in the region of €3 million.[7][8] He first appeared in La Liga on 15 September, replacing goalscorer Piotr Trochowski in the 82nd minute of the 1–0 defeat of reigning champions Real Madrid, at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium.[9] He scored his first goal for the Andalusians on 28 January 2013 of the following year, heading home the first for his team in an eventual 3–0 home derby win against Granada CF.[10]
In Sevilla's semi-final second leg tie of the Copa del Rey against eventual winners Atlético Madrid, on 27 February 2013, Kondogbia picked up a red card as his team ended the match with nine men in the 2–2 home draw, and fell to a 3–4 aggregate loss.[11][12]
Monaco
On 31 August 2013 Kondogbia returned to his country, signing a five-year contract with newly promoted AS Monaco FC worth €20 million.[13] He contributed with 26 games and one goal in his first season, helping the club finish second and return to the UEFA Champions League after one decade.
In the Champions League round-of-16's first leg, on 25 February 2015, Kondogbia put his team ahead at Arsenal in an eventual 3–1 win.[14]
Internazionale
On 22 June 2015, Serie A club Internazionale announced that they had signed Kondogbia on a five-year contract for a €31 million fee,[15] subject to a medical.[16][17] He scored his first goal for his new team on 8 November, the only away against Torino FC.[18] On 14 February of the following year, he was sent off at the conclusion of a bad-tempered 1–2 loss at ACF Fiorentina for sarcastically applauding the referee; he received a two-match ban.[19]
International career
Kondogbia was selected to the French squad for the 2013 FIFA U-20 World Cup in Turkey.[20] In the nation's first group match against Ghana, on 21 June, he scored the opening goal in an eventual 3–1 defeat of the Africans,[21] being chosen by some publications as "Man of the match" for his all-around performance;[22] he netted his second goal of the tournament against the hosts, who were defeated 1–4 in the round-of-16.[23]
Kondogbia made his debut for the full team on 14 August 2013 at the age of only 20, playing 63 minutes in a 0–0 friendly draw in Belgium.[24]
Personal life
Kondogbia's older brother, Evans, is also a footballer. He spent most of his career in Belgium, and represented the Central African Republic internationally.[3][25]
