Charlton Athletic have signed defender Jerome Roussillon.

The 32-year-old has previously played in France and Germany and is a Guadeloupe international.

He has signed a short-term deal and is eligible to feature against Coventry on Saturday.

Manager Nathan Jones said: “We’re delighted to be able to bring in someone with Jerome’s experience. 

“We’ve obviously been light in that area with the injury to Josh Edwards and it’s the only position that we haven’t really got cover on, so we’re please to bring Jerome in to give us more competition and quality in that area.”
