Fulham full back Joe Bryan has signed French side Nice on loan for the remainder of the season, the club have confirmed this evening.

The left back, who famously clinched Fulham’s promotion back to the top flight with a brilliant extra-time brace against Brentford in the play-off final, is not in Marco Silva’s plans – having played just 45 minutes so far this season. The 28 year-old could well play continental football for the first time in his career after Nice were drawn against Cologne, Partizan Belgrade and Slovacko in Group D of the UEFA Conference League.

Bryan could make his first appearance for Nice against Monaco on Sunday night.
