TOULOUSE:
Cameroon international Stéphane Mbia announced on Tuesday that he will sign a deal to join French Ligue 1 club Toulouse.

The 32-year-old midfielder had spent the last two years in the Chinese Super League playing for Hebei China Fortune, but returns to France, having started his career at Rennes before a two-year spell at Marseille, where he won the 2010 Ligue 1 title.

“Very happy and proud to announce that I will sign for Toulouse in the coming days,” Mbia wrote on Twitter. “I am very happy to be returning to Ligue 1.”

Mbia played for a year in the Premier League with Queens Park Rangers before leaving for Sevilla in 2013, and spent the 2015-16 campaign at Turkish side Trabzonspor.

He has made 67 international appearances, scoring five goals.
