His professional career began in the Ivory Coast with club ES Bingerville where he quickly established himself as the best midfielder with his impressive performances, earning him a place in a Burkina Faso club ASFA Yennenga.

His style of play is best described with versatility and adaptability in the midfield. He possesses excellent passing skills that make him deliver accurate short and long passes not forgetting his dribbling skills that allow him to take on opponents and create space for himself and teammates. One key thing about the player is that he is a team player who prioritizes creating chances for teammates rather than individual glory.

Ki can either play as a central midfielder where he can orchestrate play and launch attacks, as an attacking midfielder where he can play higher up the pitch, creating opportunities and scoring goals and he can also play as a defensive midfielder who can contribute defensively due to his tackling abilities and work rate.

The midfielder is a devout Muslim who is fluent in English and French though he is also learning Swahili in Tanzania.
