Haugesund In February 2018, Koné signed for Norwegian Eliteserien club FK Haugesund on a contract until 2021. He made his debut abroad on 11 March, starting in a 2–1 away win over Odds BK.

Koné scored his first goal for the club on 5 August 2018, netting the opener in a 2–1 win at Tromsø IL. On 14 July of the following year, he scored a brace in a 5–1 home routing of the same opponent.

On 12 January 2020, Koné was loaned to Turkish Süper Lig side Adana Demirspor until the end of the season. However, he featured very rarely for the club, all as a substitute, before returning to Haugesund for the second stage of the 2020 campaign.

Sarpsborg 08 On 10 January 2021, Koné was transferred to fellow Eliteserien club Sarpsborg 08, signing a three-year contract with the club. He was the club's top goalscorer with 11 goals during the season, which included four goals in a 5–0 home routing of Sandefjord on 29 August.

Lorient On 31 January 2022, Koné signed a 4.5-year contract with French Ligue 1 club Lorient. He made his debut for the club six days later, scoring the second in a 2–0 home win over Lens.

On 8 April 2022, Koné scored a brace in a 6–2 home success over Saint-Étienne. He finished the campaign with five goals as the club narrowly avoided relegation.

Almería On 16 August 2023, Koné signed a five-year deal with La Liga side Almería. On 16 October 2023 Koné underwent ankle surgery to repair a fractured right ankle he suffered during a friendly against Uganda, knocking him out of play for five months.

Al-Okhdood (loan) On 30 August 2024, Koné joined Saudi Pro League club Al-Okhdood on a one-year loan from Almería.
