Born in Bangou, Kome moved to Spain in 1999, aged 19, and played there for over a decade. His first club was Atlético Madrid B, and he joined Levante UD (then in the third level, after one season.
After representing CD Numancia, Kome made his top flight debut with another Madrid side, Getafe CF (also a first-timer), first appearing 15 minutes in a 3–1 home win over Athletic Bilbao. On 6 February 2005, he scored the game's only goal in a home win against former side Numancia and, after relative playing time, he dropped down a level and signed with Ciudad de Murcia.
Kome started 2006–07 with RCD Mallorca but, after being overlooked, left for Real Valladolid during the January transfer window, on a two 1/2 year-deal.[2]
However, after appearing sparingly throughout one 1/2 seasons, and although still under contract, Kome managed to reach a buy-out and moved to CD Tenerife on 21 July 2008, on a Bosman transfer.[3]
On 13 June 2009, he scored the game's only goal at Girona FC, as Tenerife confirmed its return to the first level, after seven years. He featured regularly for the Canary Islands outfit in the following two seasons, but it suffered consecutive relegations.
A Cameroonian international since 2000, Kome was also part of the nation's winning team at that year's Summer Olympic Games.
At full level, he appeared twice at the 2002 FIFA World Cup and played in four contests for the 2002 Africa Cup of Nations winners, in Egypt. Kome was also selected for the 2004 and 2006 editions; in the latter, he scored in the epic 11–12 penalty shootout quarterfinal loss against Ivory Coast.
