Franck Tabanou joins Granada on loan

By , Editor-in-chief
Swansea City defender Franck Tabanou joins La Liga side Granada on loan for the rest of the season.

Swansea City defender Franck Tabanou has completed a season-long loan move to La Liga side Granada.

The 27-year-old Frenchman moved to the Welsh side from Saint-Etienne last summer but has failed to make a Premier League appearance for the Swans and spent the second half of last season back at Saint-Etienne on loan.

Just yesterday Tabanou insisted that he would be remaining part of the Swansea setup this term, telling L'Equipe: "I've decided to stay. I know that this year I will get my chance to pick a place in the starting XI and to keep it."

Tabanou had been linked with a return to France on deadline day, with Lorient and Marseille touted as possible destinations, but he will now spend the season with Granada.

Granada have got off to a poor start in La Liga this season, taking one point from their opening two fixtures and being defeated 5-1 by Las Palmas at the weekend.
