Middlesbrough have signed France Under-21 midfielder Didier Digard from Paris St Germain for just over £4m.

The 21-year-old has penned a four-year contract and is set to link up with fellow new signing Marvin Emnes, whose arrival at the Riverside was announced earlier today.

The pair are expected to be on Teesside for pre-season training on Monday and manager Gareth Southgate will be relieved to have finally tied up the transfer after the player was suspended by PSG.

The French club were furious at Digard’s allegations that they were holding up his switch to the Riverside.
