Club career


Born in Limbe, Malong started his senior career in Spain with Alcobendas CF; he made his senior debut for the club on 11 November 2012 by starting in a 2–0 Regional Preferente home win against EF Periso.[1] His first goal came the following 3 March, in a 2–0 success at Atlético Leones de Castilla.

In 2013 Kunde moved to Atlético Madrid, returning to youth football.[2] The following year, he was promoted to the reserves in Segunda División B,[3] immediately becoming a regular starter but suffering relegation in his first season.

On 21 July 2016, Kunde was loaned to Extremadura UD for one year, still in the third division.[4] He scored a career-best 11 goals during the campaign, with braces against San Fernando CD (3–1 away win), Linares Deportivo (3–1 away win) and Atlético Mancha Real (2–1 away win).[5]

On 25 July 2017, Kunde joined Granada CF, freshly relegated to Segunda División, on a one-year loan deal.[6] He made his professional debut on 20 August, coming on a late substitute for Javier Espinosa in a 0–0 home draw against Albacete Balompié.[7]

Kunde scored his first professional goal on 8 October 2017, netting the last in a 2–0 home defeat of CD Lugo. The following 22 April, he scored a brace in a 3–3 home draw against Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa.

On 6 July 2018, Kunde was transferred to Bundesliga side 1. FSV Mainz 05 and signed a four-year contract.[8]

On 22 June 2021, Kunde sign a three-year contract with Greek giants Olympiacos after undergoing a medical. The Greek side will reportedly be paying a little less than €2 million for the 25-year-old international, whose contract with Mainz expires in 2022. [9]


International career


Kunde represented Cameroon at under-18 and under-23 levels, the latter in the 2017 Islamic Solidarity Games.[10] He made his full international debut on 27 May 2018, starting in a 0–1 friendly loss against Burkina Faso.
