Ciani draws a halt to his career

Ciani started his career at Charleroi. After playing for the Belgian side, he moved to France, where he spent the majority of his playing career.

Sedan, Lorient, and Girondins de Bordeaux were the French teams he played for, and he played 280 matches for them. He then moved to Lazio where he spent 3 seasons.

From Serie A to La Liga, he went to Espanyol where he didn't perform well. Lorient and LA Galaxy were his last 2 teams before retiring at the weekend.

"It's over, that's for sure. This was my last challenge in Los Angeles. Now let's move on. I think the hardest thing for a high-level athlete is not to choose the end, but when".
