Hatem Ben Arfa joins Nice

French side Nice have officially confirmed the signing of Newcastle United midfielder Hatem Ben Arfa.

Ben Arfa failed to seal a transfer to Nice last winter, as he had already plyed his trade for Newcastle United and Hull City in the season.

It has now been revealed that the France international will show off his skills in Ligue 1 with Nice next season.

FIFA transfer rules do not permit a player to feature for more than two clubs in a single season.
