Téji Savanier has settled quickly at Metz after a surprise summer move, and wants to repay on the pitch the early faith shown by the club and its supporters.

L'Équipe reports that the switch was among the coups of the Ligue 2 window, which closed on Tuesday night, after Metz and the midfielder’s advisers kept negotiations tightly under wraps.

The former Montpellier midfielder featured in the 1-1 draw with Annecy last Saturday, on matchday 4 of Ligue 2.

At his unveiling on 10 August, president Bernard Serin’s broad smile captured the club’s appetite to surprise.

Savanier is now focused on turning that backing into performances as he continues to adapt to his new surroundings.
