The Algerian central defender Carl Medjani is set to join Valenciennes, a French Ligue 1 club, as reported by Africa Top Sports. While the information was not officially confirmed at the time, Medjani was spotted in training with the team, indicating that the deal was close to completion. Medjani, a former player for Monaco, was coming from Olympiakos, where he had limited playing time.
In addition to Medjani’s potential arrival, Valenciennes also welcomed the return of Grégory Pujol to training after being sidelined for several weeks due to a pneumothorax.
