Cardona made his professional debut on 2 February 2017 in the Coupe de France Round of 32 against FC Chambly. He replaced Pierre-Daniel N'Guinda after 78 minutes in a 5–4 away win.[2] He made his Ligue 1 debut 10 days later coming on for Radamel Falcao to play the last 9 minutes of a 5–0 home thrashing of Metz.[3]

Cercle Brugge (loan)

On 18 July 2017, Cardona extended his Monaco contract until 2021 and was immediately loaned to the club's Belgian satellite club Cercle Brugge for the following season.[4] Although he missed a couple of weeks by an injury, he still was a major key player in the team that became champion of the Belgian Second Division. He scored an important penalty in the last minute in the champion's game against Beerschot-Wilrijk.[5] He was voted second best player in the league, after teammate Xavier Mercier.[6]

gollark: It's quite easy to see that the earth flatness is wrong, unlike with religion, so I may look down on people who hold *that* belief.
gollark: I aim to avoid mocking the *people* holding beliefs, since it is quite easy to fall into traps of unfalsifiable stupid beliefs and they can't really be blamed for it, but the beliefs are totally fair game.
gollark: Well, *allowed* yes, do I think they *should* no.
gollark: I'm in it.
gollark: Yes, I particularly like to mock those.
