Aston Villa have completed the signing of Nice full-back Jordan Amavi for an undisclosed fee.
The defender, who has represented France at Under-21 level, has penned a five-year deal at Villa Park.
Amavi joins the likes of Idrissa Gueye, Mark Bunn and Micah Richards in moving to the Premier League club this summer, as Tim Sherwood sets about reshaping his squad.
"I'm delighted to have secured the services of someone we consider to be a terrific young player," Sherwood told Villa's official website.
"Jordan has been one of the outstanding players in Ligue 1 and is still very young and can become even better.
"There were a lot of clubs after him this summer so we are really pleased to welcome him to the club."
Amavi broke into the first-team at Nice in the 2013-14 campaign, and made 36 Ligue 1 appearances for the club last term, scoring four goals.
