Former Newcastle midfielder Cabaye joins Saint-Etienne

Former Newcastle midfielder Yohan Cabaye has joined Saint-Etienne on a one year-deal after being let go by Saudi club Al-Nasr, the French side announced on Tuesday.


Cabaye, 33, played 93 times for the English Premier League side after arriving from Lille in 2014, helping them to a Europa League appearance.

He left St James’ Park three years later for Paris Saint-Germain before heading to Crystal Palace.

The 48-time France international, who won a French title with Lille in 2011 and two with PSG, will line-up alongside former team-mate Mathieu Debuchy.
