Former Liverpool striker Djibril Cisse says he's retiring from football to focus on his DJ career.

The 35 year-old first called time on his football career in October 2015 because of a hip injury.

He originally hoped to make a return after having surgery last year.

He trained with his first club Auxerre in a bid to up his fitness levels but decided to bring an end to his 17-year career after failing to earn a contract at the French club.

Cisse won 41 international caps and played for Liverpool for three years from 2004.

He converted a penalty in Liverpool's penalty shootout win over AC Milan in the Champions League Final in 2005.

Cisse now says he plans to focus on his career as "a DJ, producer and pundit".
