Montpellier have completed the loan signing of French striker Andy Delort from Toulouse, with an obligatory option to buy the forward for €4.5m.

The 26-year-old signed for Toulouse on a four-year contract from Mexican club Tigres UANL in January 2017, scoring 10 goals in 47 appearances for the club in his 18-month spell.

Prior to his Mexican stint, Delort played for a host of clubs including Caen, Wigan Athletic and Tours- where he was nominated for Ligue 2 Player of the Year in the 2013/14 season.
