Djibril Cisse cost Liverpool 20 million but now he has this job to survive on

After being part of the Liverpool side that came from 3-0 down in the 2005 UEFA Champions League final against Milán, and winning the trophy after a dramatic penalty shoot-out in which he scored the 2-0 winner, Ivorian-born French striker Djibril Cisse went from being an important man for the Reds to dabbling in recent years in other areas that are not related to the sport he played until 2018.

Somehow Cisse always found a way to make the headlines in many media outlets, achieving this in 2004 when the Reds announced his transfer from AJ Auxerre to Anfield after paying the French side a total of 20 million euros, a fortune if you take into account the prices they commanded during those transfer windows.

Despite getting off to a good start at Anfield and being part of that night dubbed the 'Miracle of Istanbul', the striker like many players had serious injury problems that worsened to the point where he had to leave the English side after a two-year spell, since then wandering to a host of European clubs before ending his career at Yverdon-Sport FC in Switzerland at the end of 2017, and then moving on to other activities such as DJing and more recently running his own clothing line.

Djibril Cisse now lives in the shadows of the fashion business

Just as his career went from strength to strength with football, so did his attempt to break into music as a DJ under the name 'Tcheba, trying for some time now to enter the fashion business through clothing, using trends and his large numbers on social networks to try to stay relevant in a market that is very difficult to lead.
