Cisse has taken to DJing fulltime now and recently announced that he will be spinning for American Pop star, Mariah Carey.

The 34-year-old announced his retirement from professional football after he was arrested for his alleged involvement to blackmail former teammate Mattieu Valbuena over sex tape footbage.

He was without a full-time club since the end of last season, when he left Ligue 1 outfit Bastia.

"The body says stop, now it's over," he told Canal+ about his retirement.

"I can't practice high-level football."

Cisse's professional career started at Auxerre in 1998 and his goalscoring exploits led to a Liverpool move in 2004.

After his departure from Anfield, he spent time at numerous clubs including Marseille, Sunderland, Panathinaikos and QPR.

Cisse represented France 41 times, scoring nine goals.
