Djimi Traoré (born 1 March 1980) is a former professional
Club career
Liverpool
Traoré started his career at home club
In the 2001-02 season, Traoré was loaned to
Traoré spent the 2003–04 season, manager Gérard Houllier's last at the club, in the reserve team, of which he was captain, and almost left Liverpool for their Merseyside neighbours Everton on the 2004 transfer deadline day but was convinced to remain at Liverpool by their new manager Rafael Benítez.[6]

On 16 December he conceded a penalty against Liverpool, his former club, for a tackle on Jermaine Pennant. He was soon deemed surplus to requirements at Charlton. After only half a season at the Valley, Traoré was allowed to leave the club by new manager Alan Pardew, joining Portsmouth.[14]
