Axel Cédric Konan (born 25 January 1983 in Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire) is an Ivorian footballer who is currently contracted with Swiss Super League club AC Bellinzona.

Career

Despite being born in Côte d'Ivoire, he grew up into the youth system of Southern Italian club Lecce, making his senior debut in 2000. He played for Lecce from 2000 to 2009, except for a season loan to Torino in 2006–07.

When Konan's contract expired in June 2009, Lecce decided not to offer the Ivorian striker a new bid; he was subsequently unattached for an entire season (also failing a trial at Atalanta)[1] before to agree a one-year deal with Swiss club AC Bellinzona on November 2010.[2]
