French First Division side Lorient made a double transfer swoop on Monday as they snapped up Argentinian striker Sebastian Dubarbier and French defender Gregory Bourillon.

Both players signed four-and-a-half year contracts with Lorient – who are ninth in the league table and reached the League Cup semi-finals last week after beating Lyon.

Dubarbier, 23 and who began his career at Gimnasia La Plata, signed from Romanian club Cluj while Bourillon arrives from Paris Saint Germain.

Dubarbier joined Cluj in 2008 with whom he has appeared in both the Champions League last term and this season’s Europa League.

This season he has scored six goals in 23 league games.

Bourillon, 25 and a former France Under-21 international, had been at PSG since 2007 but has been restricted to just seven matches this season, starting just three of them, because of injury.
