Former Newcastle United midfielder Hatem Ben Arfa joins French side Nice.

By Matt Law, Football Editor | 05 January 2015

Former Newcastle United midfielder Hatem Ben Arfa has joined French side Nice.

The 27-year-old joined Newcastle from Marseille in 2010 and initially impressed at the Premier League club.

However, the midfielder's attitude and commitment were repeatedly questioned during his stint at St James' Park. At the start of the season, Ben Arfa was sent on loan to Hull City, but that deal was cancelled last month.

Newcastle proceeded to cancel the French international's contract upon his return, but he has not taken long to find a new club.

Ben Arfa will wear the number four shirt for his new club.
