Sheffield Utd striker Benie Traore happy making Nantes move

Nantes loan signing Benie Traore is excited for the challenge of impressing his new team.

The youngster joined Sheffield United from Swedish team Hacken in the summer.

However, he struggled to nail down a regular place in the Blades starting lineup.

After being unveiled by Nantes as a loan signing until the end of the season, Traore stated: "I'm very proud to be at Nantes! It's a club that I've known since I was little.

“I'm really happy to be here. Wearing this jersey and discovering Ligue 1 is a challenge for me.

“I can't wait to start in my new colors and show my qualities to help the team. La Beaujoire? I saw it on TV and I can't wait!"
