Career

Cardiff City

Tutonda was born in Kinshasa, DR Congo[4] and moved to London, England with his family at the age of five. He did not start playing football until the age of 12. Tutonda was subsequently spotted by Cardiff City academy manager Neal Ardley, who signed him in October 2012.[5][6] He was offered a professional contract with Cardiff in April 2014.[6]

On 13 February 2015, he joined League Two club Newport County on an initial one-month loan. Tutonda made his Football League debut for Newport the day after when he was in the starting line-up for the fixture against Wycombe Wanderers.[7] Newport won the match 2–1. He scored his first Football League goal for Newport on 18 April 2015.

Tutonda joined League Two club York City on 7 August 2015 on a six-month loan.[8] He made his debut a day later in the opening match of the 2015–16 season, a 3–0 away defeat to Wycombe Wanderers.[9] The loan was terminated early on 27 November 2015.[10]

Barnet

On 31 December 2016, Tutonda agreed to sign for League Two club Barnet on a two-year contract,[11] effective from 1 January 2017.[12] He scored his first goal for the club on 29 April 2017 in a 3–1 win over Grimsby Town.[13] He left the club at the end of the 2019-20 season, having played 113 games for the Bees, scoring five goals.[14]
