Julio Kenny Donisa (born 15 January 1994) is a professional footballer who most recently played as a forward for Liga I club FC Argeș Pitești. Born in France, he formerly represented the Martinique national team before switching to represent the Madagascar national team.

Club career

Having arrived from Martinique, Donisa trained with CS Brétigny-sur-Orge and later played with the U19 team of FC Rouen. Having almost secured a move to Parma whilst at Rouen, a move which fell through over a disagreement about compensation due to the Brétigny club, he moved to Italy anyway, playing with Battipagliese and Fondi.[2]

In 2015 he joined AS Pagny-sur Moselle after being involved in a training match organised by his agent.[2] In his second season with the club he scored thirteen goals, and was signed by Concarneau to play in the Championnat National.[3]

Donisa was designated revelation of the Championnat National for the 2017–18 season, and earned a move to Red Star F.C., signing a two-year professional contract at the start of the 2018–19 season.[4] On 27 July 2018, the first matchday of the 2018–19 season, Donisa made his Ligue 2 debut with Red Star in a 2–1 home defeat to Niort.[5]

In January 2019, he was loaned to AS Lyon-Duchère from Red Star until the end of the season.[6] Whilst at Lyon-Duchère he caught the eye of recruiters from Clermont Foot, and eventually signed a two-year contract with them in August 2019.[7]

In June 2020, Donisa signed for Le Mans FC.[8]
