French Ligue 1 side Guingamp have signed sacked Sunderland defender Papy Djilobodji for six months.
The 30-year-old’s contract was terminated by the English League One side in September 2018 after returning late to the Stadium of Light and failing a fitness test.
Djilobodji who spent last season on loan with Dijon made 24 appearances across all competitions for the Black Cats before his abrupt departure.
However, the Stade de Roudourou outfit - struggling at the bottom of the league log with 11 points from 18 games - have announced the capture of the former Chelsea player in their quest to avoid relegation at the end of the season.
