Career

Hognon started his career at hometown club AS Nancy in Ligue 2, making his debut during the 1993-94 season. He played a total of nine seasons with the club, three of them in Ligue 1, before moving to AS Saint-Étienne, who had recently been relegated to Ligue 2 following a fake passport scandal. However, the club won promotion during his second season there, and he has been a key member of the side during their past three seasons in the top division. During the summer 2007 he signed for OGC Nice, where he played until hanging up his boots in 2009.
