Kévin Constant (born 10 May 1987) is a Guinean international footballer who is currently playing for FC Sion

Constant progressed through the ranks of the reserves. In 2006, he was promoted to Toulouse's first-team squad.

In 2008, Constant moved to Ligue 2 side Châteauroux.

In September 2010, Constant was signed by Italian club Chievo on a loan deal, ultimately made permanent in June 2011.

On 1 July 2011, Constant made a move to Genoa for €5.6 million cash, with Francesco Acerbi (tagged for €2 million) and Ivan Fatić (tagged for €200,000) moving the other way to Chievo. Genoa, however, bought Acerbi outright from Reggina for €2.2 million, which would make Constant worth €8 million.

On 20 June 2012, Constant moved to Milan on a loan deal, which carried an option to buy. On 26 January 2013, Milan entered into co-ownership with Genoa for Constant in exchange for the termination of Francesco Acerbi's co-ownership, both for €4 million fees. On 27 July 2013, Milan purchased Constant out-right for another €6 million, also selling Rodney Strasser to Genoa for €3.5 million on the same day.

In July 2013, Constant responded to what he perceived as racial abuse from spectators at a pre-season TIM Trophy match against Sassuolo by leaving the pitch. Although the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) fined Sassuolo €30,000 due to "racially discriminatory shouts and chants aimed at a player from the opposition’s team", a police investigation found no evidence of such.

Constant transferred to Turkish Süper Lig club Trabzonspor for a €2.5 million transfer fee in 2014, signing a four-year contract worth an annual average of €2.25 million. He made his official debut for the club against Russian side Rostov in the play-off qualifying round for the 2014–15 UEFA Europa League. Constant's contract was later terminated on 18 November 2015 for €2 million.
