Around half a million euros were spent to acquire defender Carlos Bocanegra from another French club, "Rennes."

The 31-year-old American recently participated in the World Cup and served as the captain of the US national team.

He arrived at "Rennes" in the summer of 2008 from London's "Fulham" and is known for his versatility - he can play both in the midfield and left-back positions.
