Riffi Mandanda (born 11 October 1992) is a former professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper. Born in France, he is a former youth international for France and DR Congo.[4]

Club career

[edit]

Mandanda is a youth product of Caen, though he was never offered a spot in the club's first team. After making his debut in the French lower divisions on loans, Mandanda joined Ajaccio in 2015, as a backup for Anthony Scribe.[5] He made his full professional debut a few months later, in a 3–0 Ligue 2 defeat against Nancy.[6]

In February 2020, Mandanda joined Rennes on a contract until the end of the 2019–20 season.[7] He left the club at the expiration of his contract in summer 2020.[8]

On 7 September 2020, Mandanda signed with Norwegian club Kongsvinger IL that plays in the second tier 1. divisjon.[9] In July 2021, he joined Créteil in the Championnat National.[10]

International career

[edit]

Mandanda played five matches with the France U18 team and one with the France U19 before playing four matches with Congo DR under-20. In November 2019 he was called up by the DR Congo national team, but did not make the team's roster for 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.[11]

Personal life

[edit]

Mandanda is the younger brother of France international goalkeeper Steve Mandanda and DR Congo international goalkeeper Parfait Mandanda.[12] His younger brother Over Mandanda signed with Ligue 1 club Bordeaux in July 2017.[13]
