Amara Konate (born 1 February 1999) is a Guinean footballer who plays as a midfielder for Italian Serie D club L'Aquila on loan from Cavese.
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]
