Nigeria centre-back Chigozie Awaziem has joined French Ligue 1 side FC Nantes on a season loan.
The 20-year-old defender joins The Canaries from FC Porto and reunites with a teammate from the Portuguese club, Joris Kayembe-Ditu, who had earlier sealed a switch to the side.
Awaziem has already teamed up with his new team in their training camp in the southeastern town of Annecy.
