He had only joined Roma a year ago from Al-Hilal for €2.5m, but struggled to get regular playing time at the Stadio Olimpico.

In one full season, he made just eight competitive appearances, nonetheless managing to score one goal and provide one assist.

According to reports in France, the transfer is a loan with option to buy at the end of the season.

The option is believed to be worth circa €2-3m.

Roma had been in advanced negotiations to send Abdulhamid to Toulouse FC instead, but they could not make the squad work with non-EU slots.
