Arnaud Djoum has joined Union St Gilloise ‘B’ following his summer exit from Dundee United.
Djoum, 34, had been a free agent since leaving the Tannadice outfit by mutual consent in June, agreeing to annul the final season of his two-year contract.

Djoum enjoyed a far more successful stint at Hearts, scoring 15 times and claiming 18 assists in 132 outings. He also plied his trade with Akhisar Belediyespor, Al-Read, Apollon Limassol, Brussels, Lech Poznan, Roda JC, and Anderlecht.
And he will continue his career with Union St Gilloise’s second string, which participates in the Belgian Division 2 ACFF — the fourth tier of their pyramid structure — and is made up primarily of the club’s top under-23 talents.
A club statement confirmed: “[Djoum] joins Union to play for the U23s and give the team some valuable quality and experience.”
USG’s first-team finished third in the Belgian top-flight last season and will face Liverpool in the Europa League next Thursday.
