Hamilton sign Oumar Diaby after Levski Sofia exit

Oumar Diaby started his career with Real Sociedad

Hamilton Academical have signed Oumar Diaby as a replacement for fellow French striker Christian Nade after cutting short his deal at Levski Sofia.

The 26-year-old left six months into a two-year contract with the Bulgarian top-flight outfit signed in the summer.

Diaby arrives as 31-year-old Nade moved on to Championship club Dumbarton.

Accies' new signing began his career with Real Sociedad before spells with French clubs Chateauroux, Genets Anglet and Agde.

Christian Nade scored three times during his six months with Hamilton

Diaby moved to Kosice in Slovakia in 2012 and made 11 appearances, scoring once, after joining Levski.

Nade, the former Troyes, Sheffield United and Hearts striker who joined Accies in the summer after exiting Raith Rovers, made 18 appearances for the Scottish Premiership outfit, scoring three times.

Meanwhile, 19-year-old Accies full-back Scott McMann has joined League Two outfit Clyde on loan until the end of the season.
