Kondogbia on his first at the Velodrome
“I was a little bit excited, I was looking forward to discovering it from the inside. We saw a willing and ambitious group. For me, it was encouraging and quite satisfying.”

Kondogbia on the 3rd preliminary round of C1
“It did not put me off because the most important thing is the intentions. I saw intentions, whether in the workforce or in the speech. It was not a hindrance for me to participate in this 3rd round. When the intentions are there, we get results most of the time.”

Kondogbia on the project presented to him
“I was given an ambitious project, whether in terms of recruitment or mentality. Knowing Pablo, I knew it was something that was going to move forward at this level. We see it today with the recruits and the intentions we have. That’s what I needed.”
“We have a very good group, I was easily integrated. On the pitch, I felt a voluntary and ambitious group, which knows what we have to play and what we must represent. The intentions are there and that’s what gives hope.”

Kondogbia on the reasons that led him to choose OM
“There were several aspects. The first was the trust between the management and me, we had known great things before. Being born and having grown up here, I know the passion of the club and what it represents in France. But I didn’t want it to be only driven by feelings, I also had to think carefully about the project, that we be in agreement with the management.All these elements made me opt for OM. “

Kondogbia on her relationship with Marcelino
“I have good memories, we had good times, we managed to win a title so it remains positive. It can help me in terms of adaptation. Knowing his methods, knowing what he is looking for facilitates the ‘integration.”
“If I was a relay with him during this preparation? Perhaps in relation to the language and in relation to the habits that we have in France. He asked me for some advice.”

Longoria on Kondogbia: “We wanted to start rebuilding the squad with him”
Pablo Longoria: “We are very happy to be able to present Kondogbia, he is the first recruit. We had discussions even before the arrival of the new coach. He was a player we wanted to have with us. I had lucky to have him at Valencia. He’s a modern player. Recoverer, speed in passing, forward play… He has a lot of recognition in the clubs where he played. We wanted to start the reconstruction of squad with him.”
