Playing career

Léoni was born in Saint-Mihiel. A defender, he initially joined Metz as a youth player but failed to break through to the first team. After leaving the club in 1998 he sought to continue his career in England, signing for Bristol Rovers, where he spent two seasons and scored his only goal for the club in an FA Cup tie against Rotherham United in January 1999.[1] In 2000, he had a four-month spell with Dundee United in the Scottish Premier League before returning to France. Since then, he has spent a season each with CS Sedan Ardennes, AS Beauvais Oise, FC Rouen and FC Sète prior to rejoining his first club, Metz, in June 2006, before signed in summer 2009 for AS Cannes.

Coaching career

After a spell as assistant manager with Amiens SC, Léoni was appointed manager of US Sarre-Union in June 2018.[2] He left the club in May 2020, in the wake of financial difficulties caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.[3]

gollark: No, and you should also never do this.
