Armenians in Sedan trial

The French club are running the rule over a quartet of new faces, as they ponder their options ahead of January's transfer window.

The Armenian duo are Jose Bilibio and Aghvan Mkrtchyan.

Bilibio was actually born in Argentina but obtained Armenian citizenship earlier this year, and was called into the international squad by coach Oscar Lopez for the first time when Ukraine provided the opposition in September.

The 16-year-old defender plays for Armenian champions Pyunik Yerevan, and was sent off against Dinamo Kiev in the Champions League qualifiers last summer.

Mkrtchyan is a defender or midfielder who has represented his country several times, and has been playing for FC Ararat.

The other two players are former Guingamp defender David Romond, and Ivory Coast midfielder Raoul Kouakou.
