The 28-year-old joins WBA after manager Steve Clarke contacted Marseille representatives last week regarding a move for the attacking midfielder.<br />

Clarke told the club's official website: "I&rsquo;m delighted to welcome Morgan to the club. He is predominantly a right-sided midfielder who can also operate in a number of other midfield and attacking positions.<br />

"Morgan is a technical player with good quality on the ball. He also has fantastic work-rate and we believe his game is well suited to the Premier League. Morgan&rsquo;s arrival will increase competition in midfield and add more quality and depth to the squad."<br />
