Axel Kayombo, born on 25 February 2006 (age 20), is a French right winger whose senior career has been shaped almost entirely at Sturm Graz. He wears squad number 11 and is valued at around £1.5m by Transfermarkt.
His main league involvement came in 2025-26, when he made 16 appearances and scored once for Sturm Graz. That remains the clearest marker of his progress so far: a young wide player getting proper minutes at a club with decent standards, rather than being pushed along by reputation.
In 2026-27, Kayombo has added one Bundesliga appearance, one in Champions League qualifying and six in the Europa League. Across his Sturm Graz league career, he has made 17 appearances and scored one goal.
Kayombo’s career to date is a Sturm Graz story. The next part is still fairly plain: more games, more consistency, and proof that his role can grow beyond promising involvement.
