Charlton Athletic have completed the signing of midfielder Florent Rouamba on a deal that will keep him at The Valley until the end of the season.
Rouamba moves to England from Moldovan side FC Sheriff Tiraspol, but Addicks manager Chris Powell believes that the Burkina Faso international can still have an impact in the Championship.
The former England international told the club's official website: "He has been playing out in Moldova, which is quite a strange route but it happens with a lot of players as they just want to play, regardless of the country.
"He trained with us before the international break and we quite liked what we saw, so we've managed to secure him, hopefully, if everything is resolved with his work permit.
"He will be with us until the end of the season, which gives us a longer look at him."
The 26-year-old has represented his country on 30 occasions.
