Image for Thauvin or Cabella – Which French flop was more disappointing?

As uncelebrated as he was during his ill-fated stint on Tyneside, it seems flop winger Florian Thauvin has left Newcastle United with less than a whimper.

News broke this morning that Ligue 1 side Marseille had taken up the option of making his loan deal a more permanent arrangement and the 23-year-old is thought to have departed for good.

One of many flops brought in from the French market over the course of the past few years, he’s the second player to have failed at St. James’ Park only to earn a move to one of France’s biggest clubs.

He’ll now continue his time with Remy Cabella in the south of France and both players represent dark times in Newcastle’s transfer policies.

Though clearly gifted talents, it was easy to tell that neither had what it takes to make it on these shores, though were brought in regardless.

So, with that in mind, vote as to who you think is a bigger flop!
