Ligue 1 : Camel Meriem (AS Monaco) vs Ludovic Giuly (Paris SG)
Greek Super League club Aris Thessaloniki are closing in on the signature of Camel Meriem, according to a report on Football365.

The former France midfielder is apparently about to pen a deal with the side who finished sixth last term that will shackle him to Hector Cuper's side for 18 months. He will join Toulouse-born midfielder Mehdi Nafti in the squad.

Despite having earned four caps for les Bleus, the midfielder left Monaco under the freedom of contract law last summer and has not been at a club since. There were strong rumours linking him with a move to the English Premier League at one stage, with Bolton Wanderers taking an especially long look at the 30-year-old, but no move was brokered in the end.

Aris are presently in a very healthy position in their domestic league, lying fourth, which would be enough to assure them of a play-off spot at the end of the season. A top three finish in the post season would assure the northern club of European football next term.
