Manu Koné

Manu Koné of Roma was born in Colombes, France on 17 May 2001 (age 25).

Manu Koné, born on 17 May 2001 (age 25), is a French central midfielder with Roma. His senior career first gathered pace at Toulouse, where the 2020-21 league season brought his best scoring return: three goals in 36 appearances.

He is now at Roma, operating in Serie A, and has started 2026-27 with five league appearances and two goals. That is a useful return from central midfield rather than anything needing a brass band.

His current market value is around £42.5m, according to Transfermarkt. Koné’s career so far runs from Toulouse to Roma, with his standing now shaped by regular work in Italy and a growing record from midfield.
