Jean Makoun joins Olympiacos on loan


Midfielder Jean Makoun has left Aston Villa to join Greek outfit Olympiacos on a season-long loan deal, the Premier League club have announced.

The 28-year-old joined Villa from French side Lyon for a fee in the region of £6million in January, but has failed to establish himself so far.

The Cameroon international made just seven appearances during the second half of last season, with a red card at Blackpool his most notable impact, while his only game to date this season came in the Carling Cup win over Hereford last week.

Makoun, has made 54 appearances for his country and he is contracted to Villa until the summer of 2014.
 
Providing his move to the Greek champions is approved by FIFA by Wednesday, he will become available for Olympiakos' Champions League matches against Arsenal, Marseille and Borussia Dortmund, as well as the Super League season which started at the weekend
