Following the record signings of both Aaron Mooy and Tom Ince, Huddersfield Town have again smashed their club record transfer by securing a deal for Steve Mounie.
The 22-year-old striker joins from Montpellier for a reported £11.4 million and signs a four-year contract after successfully undergoing his medical a few days ago.
Mounie rose to prominence following his performances in France's Ligue 1 which saw him bag 14 goals in 32 starts, finding a spot within the top ten scorers in the league.
