Didier Ya Konan (born 22 May 1984) is a Ivorian former footballer who played as a forward for the Ivory Coast national team.
Born in Abidjan, Ya Konan started his professional career with ASEC Mimosas in 2003, a club that is known for producing players, such as Kolo Touré and Didier Zokora. He was the top scorer in the African Champions League competition that season, with ASEC eventually failing in the semi finals, to Egyptian club Al Ahly.
In December 2006, he signed for Rosenborg, for a three-year contract in the Norwegian Premier League.
In January 2007, Ya Konan was nominated for the Ivorian Footballer of the Year award for 2006, which was eventually won by Chelsea's striker Didier Drogba. He was one of two homeland-based players at the time to be nominated, the other being former ASEC teammate Bakary Soro.
On 11 August 2009, Ya Konan moved to Bundesliga side Hannover 96, initially signing a three-year contract.
