Former Aston Villa winger Charles N'Zogbia agrees Nantes move after failing to secure Sunderland deal

Former Aston Villa winger Charles N'Zogbia is set to join Nantes, according to reports in France.

The 30-year-old is currently a free agent after his contract at Villa Park expired at the end of June.

The Frenchman spent part of pre-season training with Sunderland but they decided against offering him a deal.

Now, according to L'Equipe, N'Zogbia has agreed personal terms with Nantes and will sign with them in the coming days.

The former Newcastle United and Wigan Athletic man will reportedly pen a one-year contract with the French club.
