Career

Born in Aboisso-Comoé, Anani spent his early years at Aubervilliers and CFFP, [1] before joining Marseille to complete his formation. [2] He made eight appearances and scored two goals for the youth setup in the NextGen Series (2011–13). Simultaneously, Anani featured for Marseille's reserves in the CFA 2. He was eventually promoted to the senior squad in 2012, [3] [4] being an unused substitute in official matches on several occasions.

In June 2014, after leaving Marseille, Anani was linked with Austrian club Red Bull Salzburg, but the deal never went through. He subsequently went on trial with Serbian top-flight club Radnički Niš in early 2015, [5] [6] but failed to get a contract. In the summer of 2015, Anani signed with Serbian second-tier club Dinamo Vranje. He appeared in seven games and scored twice for the side, before leaving after just a few months.

In early 2017, after being without a club for more than a year, Anani returned to France and joined CFA 2 side Aubagne. In October he left Aubagne and signed for Marseille Endoume in the now renamed Championnat National 3. [7]

On 31 May 2019, Anani joined Bourg-en-Bresse. [8]

On 9 August 2022, Anani signed with Red Star. [9] On 14 January 2025, he was loaned to Villefranche. [10]
