Kouamatien Emmanuel Koné (born 31 December 1986) is an Ivorian footballer, who plays for Levadiakos.

Career

Koné was born in Abongoua.

In the January transfer window of the 2007–08 season, Koné left Ivorian club ASEC Mimosas to join Romanian Liga I CFR Cluj. On November 2011, he was released by CFR and after three weeks of tests with Sedan, he signed a contract for two and a half years with the French club.[1] On 10 August 2013, Levadiakos announced the acquisition of Koné on a two years' contract for an undisclosed fee.[2] On 19 February 2015, the Ivorian attacking midfielder accused his club Levadiakos that they do not permit him to take part in training as long as he is not open for a contract extension which runs out at the end of the season. According to reports, Koné stayed in a hotel, but his club does not cover the expenses, while his family has been forced to return to France. On the other hand, the club denied Koné's claims, as it insists that the Ivorian left Levadiakos without any warning and he was the one who expressed the desire to leave the club as he was considering an offer from a Qatari team. Levadiakos also claim that Koné later came back as his potential move collapsed.[3]

On 1 July 2015, Koné made an oral agreement with Veria,[4] but eventually he signed a contract with Apollon Smyrnis for an undisclosed fee.[5]

On 25 January 2019, Levadiakos officially announced the return of the Ivorian midfielder on a free transfer.[6]

International career

Koné played for the Ivory Coast at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing.[7] He was also part of the squad for the 2010 FIFA World Cup.
