Career

A youth product of Modena, Koffi left for Virtus Castelfranco of Serie D in the summer of 2004, a team in the Province of Modena.

In the summer of 2007, Modena re-signed Koffi. After playing three times in 2009–10 Serie B, he was released. In October 2010, he signed for Seconda Divisione side Sanremese,[2] but he was released in December.[3] However on 31 January 2011, he signed for Serie A team Napoli and immediately loaned to Siracusa (swapped with youngster Andrea Petta).[4] It was because when Koffi became a free agent, Napoli would got a non-EU signing from abroad quota to "replace" Koffi.

On 15 August 2011, he signed for another Serie A team, Roma.[5] He moved to the Belgian Second Division side Royal Boussu Dour Borinage on the same day.[6] In the same window, Roma also signed Alain Mendy and released him to Belgium in order to get the non-EU quota.

On 31 January 2014, he signed for Westerlo.[7]
