Amiens to sign midfielder Eddy Gnahoré permanently from Palermo

RMC report that Ligue 1 side Amiens have activated a €3m option to purchase clause in their loan deal with Palermo for influential midfielder Eddy Gnahoré.

The clause was activated automatically following a certain number of appearances made by the player – there is another condition required to ratify the arrangement: that is that Amiens avoid relegation from Ligue 1 this season. They currently sit 8 points away from the definitive relegation places.

On top of that, the Picardy club have landed the signature of attacking midfielder Jayson Papeau, who has been a revelation in the French 4th division with Sainte-Geneviève this season, joining on a 3-year deal.
