Metz to sign Marc-Aurèle Caillard

Our colleague Mohamed Toubache-TER reports that Ligue 1 side Metz have an agreement in principle with 26-year-old French goalkeeper Marc-Aurèle Caillard, who is a free agent after leaving Ligue 2 side Guingamp last month when his contract expired.

Caillard will come in as competition to Alexandre Oukidja, who many at Les Grenats felt was too inconsistent last season.
