Djibril Cissé actually wants to know again. The 39-year-old striker, who declared his career over for the second time after 2015 two years ago, is putting on his shoes again for Panathinaikos Chicago in the semi-professional National Premier Soccer League. The club announced this on its Twitter account.
Last summer, Cissé had already agreed to make another comeback when he offered himself to all Ligue 1 clubs to break the 100-goal mark. Even if there was a club with FCO Dijon that was considering a commitment, there was no return to the professional field.
With Morata & Coutinho: Players with the highest transfer revenues
For the 41-time French international, a total of 52.8 million euros in transfer fees were paid over the course of his career and thus even slightly more than for Thierry Henry, Loïc Rémy and other prominent compatriots (among the most expensive French). Curious: In addition to Panathinaikos Chicago, Cissé was also active for the club of the same name in Athens from 2009 to 2011.
