Félix Ettien
Félix Dja Ettien Yohou, known as Ettien, is an Ivorian former professional footballer.
A right midfielder with great stamina and strength, he also held a Spanish passport due to the years spent in the country, all with Levante where he played 324 competitive matches – 81 of those in La Liga.
Club career
Ettien was born in Abidjan. While representing Ivory Coast in the 1997 FIFA World Youth Championship, he caught the eyes of Spanish club Levante UD, who purchased both him and his compatriot Idrissa Keita. While Keita flopped, Ettien became one of the team's most important players – despite suffering racist abuse early on in his career in the country; in his first season, however, he only appeared in seven games as they were relegated from the Segunda División.As the Valencian Community side were twice promoted and relegated during his 11-year spell, Ettien was ever-present, appearing in all but four matches in the 2006–07 campaign and scoring two goals in a narrow escape from relegation in La Liga. In July 2008, he left due to the club's serious economic problems.
In September 2009, after more than one year out of football, the 30-year-old Ettien had an unsuccessful trial at Romania's FC Astra Ploiești. In January 2011, he signed with Spanish Segunda División B side UD Alzira.
