Former Arsenal man Johan Djourou set to complete Montpellier move despite West Ham interest

Former Arsenal defender and recent West Ham target Johan Djourou is set to join Montpellier.

The centre-back fell out of favour at Hamburg towards the end of the season and it was suggested that West Ham may make a move for him this summer.

However, according to Midi Libre, the Switzerland international will pen a two-year deal once he returns from his current holiday.

Djourou has been at Hamburg since 2013 when he left Arsenal and spent time as captain of the German club, for which he has racked up 94 Bundesliga appearances.
