*Club domestic league appearances and goals |
A graduate of the Auxerre Academy, he left France for Scotland when he signed with Rangers in July 2005. He never made a first-team appearance for either club, and instead made his senior debut in the English Football League on loan at Boston United. He joined Lincoln City in January 2007, and spent over two seasons with the Imps. He was named League Two Player of the Month in January 2009 and was listed on the PFA Team of the Year for 2008–09. He moved on to Leicester City in June 2009, but fell out of first-team contention at the club and instead spent time on loan at Scunthorpe United, Southampton and Millwall. He joined Millwall on a free transfer in August 2011, though again never established himself as a first-team regular and instead he joined Charlton Athletic on loan. He spent the 2013–14 campaign with Swindon Town. He signed with Port Vale in October 2014, and then moved to Greek side AEL three months later. He returned to England with Doncaster Rovers in July 2015, before joining Norwegian side IK Start for a brief spell in April 2017.
