Thomas Monconduit (born 10 February 1991) is a French professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for club Amiens.

Club career

Amiens

Monconduit joined Amiens in 2015 after spending a year without a club while recovering from three surgeries for an inguinal hernia. He played for the club during their ascent from the third-tier National division to Ligue 1, becoming a key figure in their historic promotion in 2017. In April 2018, during his first season in the top flight, Monconduit voluntarily stepped down as captain, stating that the role created "unnecessary pressure" that affected his individual performance.[2] He served as captain from August 2016 until April 2018.[2]

Lorient

On 26 August 2020, Monconduit signed a three-year contract with FC Lorient.[3]

Saint-Étienne

On 30 August 2022, Monconduit moved to Saint-Étienne on a three-year contract.[4] During his time with Saint-Etienne, he made 50 appearances and contributed to the club's return to Ligue 1. However, following a surgery and the arrival of coach Eirik Horneland, he found himself out of the first-team plans during the final year of his contract.[5]

Amiens

On 3 February 2025, Monconduit returned to Amiens on a half-season contract.[6] On 26 June 2025, he signed a one-year contract extension.[7] During the 2025–26 season, he was again named captain following a long-term injury to teammate Victor Lobry. On 21 November 2025, Monconduit announced that the 2025–26 season would be his last as a professional footballer. Citing physical and mental fatigue, he expressed a desire to discover life without football and mentioned a potential interest in transitioning into a sporting coordinator role.[8]

Personal life

Monconduit was born in Drancy.[2] His grandmother, Muguette Jacquaint, served as a deputy for the French Communist Party for 26 years.[2]

In 2017, he joined the support committee for François Ruffin during his legislative campaign.[9] He has frequently spoken out against the star system and wealth disparity within professional football, stating in interviews that he prefers to live a normal life and has considered entering politics following his athletic career.[2]
