Valenciennes have completed the signing of Mamadou Samassa from Marseille
Loan deal for Marseille striker
Valenciennes have completed the signing of Mamadou Samassa from Marseille.
Samassa, who was linked with Middlesbrough earlier this week, has agreed a season-long loan with Valenciennes.
The 23-year-old has sunk down the pecking order at l'OM and coach Didier Deschamps has sanctioned the move.
Samassa will help beef up Valenciennes' strike-force which recently lost Gregory Pujol to a knee injury which will sideline him for two months.
