RMC Sport report that Ligue 1 strugglers ESTAC Troyes have concluded a €2.7m deal with Portuguese side Moreirense to sign left-back Abdu Conté.
The 23-year-old Portuguese youth international full-back is expected to arrive in France tomorrow where he will undergo a medical ahead of completing a permanent move.
Metz had also made an offer to the player, but just on loan, which was less attractive to his current club.
