Personal life
Born in Nzérékoré, Guinea, Konate left his native country in 2017 to move to Europe, crossing the Mediterranean Sea via Libya and then finally settling down to Italy.[1] After landing to Catania, he was moved to an immigration center in Cassino, where he started playing football with a local team, despite not having ever seriously played the game before.[1]
Career
Perugia
While in Cassino, he was noticed by a football agent, who proposed him to Perugia; on his trial, he convinced the club managers to sign him, joining the club's Under-19 squad in the 2017–18 season.[1][2]
Loan to Rieti
On 1 October 2018, Serie C club Rieti officially announced that Konate joined them on a season-long loan.[3] He made his Serie C debut for Rieti earlier, on 29 September 2018 in a game against Cavese as a 90th-minute substitute for Boubakary Diarra.[4]
Messina
On 30 July 2021 he joined ACR Messina.[5]
