Angers announce Sada Thioub’s signing from Nimes

French Ligue 1 club Angers have announced the signing of Sada Thioub from rivals Nimes for an undisclosed fee.

On Tuesday, the Senegalese striker agreed a four-year deal with the Stade Raymond Kopa outfit after undergoing successful medical examinations.

Thioub has been with Nimes since 2016 and played a key role as the Crocodiles secured promotion to the French top-flight in 2018.

Last season, the forward was a consistent performer for Bernard Blaquart’s men, making 38 league appearances and scoring three goals as they ended ninth on the league table.

Angers, meanwhile, finished 13th in the 2018/19 season and have bolstered their attack with the 24-year-old striker in their quest to challenge for glory in the upcoming season.
