Gondo was born in Divo, in the south of the Ivory Coast; at age seven he moved to Italy with his family,[1] settling in Casier, in the province of Treviso.[2]
Gondo began his youth career with Fiorentina.[3][4] On 24 August 2015, he was sent on loan with the right of purchase to Serie B side Ternana.[5] He made his professional debut on 6 September against Trapani, replacing Fabio Ceravolo in the 74th minute.[6] Gondo scored his first goal with Ternana on 12 December against Como.[7] He ended the season scoring two goals in 25 appearances.[8]
On 9 August 2016, Gondo was signed by Asteras Tripolis, with whom he signed a four-year contract.[9] He made his debut in the Super League Greece on 25 September against Atromitos, coming on as a substitute in the 34th minute of the second half in place of Pablo Mazza.[10]
On 2 September 2019, after some experiences in Serie C, he was signed by Lazio, who sent him on loan to Salernitana.[11] Starting as a reserve,[12] he gradually carved out a place as a starter under Gian Piero Ventura,[13] scoring six goals – including the goal that allowed his side to win 2–1 in the derby against Juve Stabia – and making nine assists.[14]
On 30 January 2022, Gondo signed with Cremonese.[15] On 10 August 2022, he moved on loan to Ascoli, with an option to buy.[16] On 30 August 2023, Gondo moved on a new loan to Reggiana, with an obligation to buy if Reggiana avoided relegation from Serie B.[17] Reggiana avoided it.
Gondo is a versatile centre-forward, whose main characteristics are his physicality, agility, and aerial play.[18][19][20]
Gondo is known for having participated in both seasons of MTV's reality TV show Calciatori – Giovani speranze, when he was a Fiorentina youth player.[3][4]
