Geoffrey Edwin Kondogbia (born 15 February 1993) is a professional footballer who plays for Ligue 1 club Marseille, which he captains. Primarily a defensive midfielder, he can also play as a centre-back or left-back.
Kondogbia started his career at Lens, then signed with Sevilla at the age of 19. In 2013 he was bought by Monaco for €20 million, and then by Inter Milan for €31 million two years later. He returned to Spain in 2017 to play for Valencia, winning the Copa del Rey in 2019. In 2020 he moved to Atlético Madrid, winning La Liga in his first season.
Kondogbia earned 57 caps for his birth country of France across its youth levels, before making his debut for the senior team in 2014. In August 2018, he was cap-tied to the Central African Republic by switching his allegiance, and made his debut for its national team in an official match shortly after.
