St Mirren sign Djemba Djemba

Scottish Premiership side St Mirren have signed former Manchester United midfielder Eric Djemba Djemba on a short-term contract, according to the Guardian.

The 32 year old moved to Old Trafford from Nantes in 2003, having been part of Cameroon’s victorious Africa Cup of Nations squad the previous year, when he also played in the World Cup in South Korea and Japan.

He won the FA Cup during his eighteen month spell with United, winning the FA Cup in 2004 though he was an unused substitute in the final victory over Millwall at the Millennium Stadium.

Spells with Aston Villa and Burnley (loan) followed, before he went on to represent clubs in Qatar, Denmark, Israel and Serbia, the latter of which he was playing until Partizan Belgrade terminated his contract in December.

Djemba Djemba is in line to make his debut for St Mirren, who currently sit ninth in the league, against Dundee United in the Scottish Cup on Sunday afternoon.
