FC Sion Snap Up Mpenza

Free agent Emile Mpenza has penned a two-year contract with FC Sion, current holders of the Swiss Cup. The Belgian striker will be praying for an upsurge in fortune having endured a catalogue of inopportune injuries with his former employer, Plymouth Argyle.

This prolonged duration spent on the treatment table restricted the 31-year-old to making only nine appearances on the south-west coast of England and his plagued record in preceding seasons ultimately consigned the Pilgrims to act against any contract renewal.
