Ligue 1 strugglers Nîmes have signed 30-year-old midfielder Lucas Deaux from Ligue 2 club EA Guingamp.
Deaux takes the #8 shirt and has signed a 2-year contract, in a part cash (€500k), part player deal, which sees 31-year-old midfielder Pierrick Valdivia head in the opposite direction as EAG seek to find a way back into the top flight this season.
