Swansea striker Bafetimbi Gomis completes Marseille loan move
Friday 29 July 2016 12:47, UK
Bafetimbi Gomis has completed his season-long loan move from Swansea City to Ligue 1 side Marseille.
The striker moved to the Liberty Stadium two years ago on a free transfer from Lyon and has scored 17 goals in 71 appearances, 42 of them as a starter.
Gomis scored in each of his first four Premier League games last season but then only struck three more times in 31 appearances.
He has become the seventh player to leave Swansea temporarily this summer and will be tasked with helping Marseille improve on last term's 13th-place finish.
Kyle Bartley and Matt Grimes have both joined Leeds while Ryan Hedges and Liam Shephard will spend the forthcoming campaign at Yeovil.
