Newcastle have signed Fabrice Pancrate after he impressed on trial at St James' Park.

The 29-year-old arrived on a free transfer after leaving Paris Saint Germain in the summer and he has agreed a deal until the end of the season with the option to extend his contract.

Pancrate is now waiting to see if he will be able to make his debut in Monday's match at Preston as he awaits international clearance.
