Saint-Etienne winger Max Gradel has agreed to move to West Ham United on a loan deal until the end of the season and will be announced tomorrow as the latest West ham signing I understand.
The 26 year old Ivory Coast international has previously played for Leicester City, Bournemouth and Leeds United before moving to France in 2011.
He scored 25 goals from 77 appearances at Leeds while managing 10 goals from 53 appearances at Saint-Etienne.
He signed a four contract which takes him up to August 2015 at Saint-Etienne but he is out of favor and managed just 9 appearances this season.
The Ligue 1 side’s manager Christophe Galtier revealed earlier this month that he would allow the winger to leave the club if a suitable offer was received.
