MADRID, July 6 (Reuters) - Atletico Madrid have agreed to
sign France goalkeeper Gregory Coupet from Olympique Lyon for
the next two seasons, the Primera Liga club said on Sunday.
The experienced 35-year-old, who represented France at Euro
2008 and has been capped 34 times, helped Lyon to win seven
consecutive league titles between 2002 and 2008.
He will be presented on Tuesday, the club said on their website.
Coupet joins Czech Republic defender Tomas Ujfalusi,
Netherlands defender John Heitinga, French striker Florent
Sinama Pongolle and Brazilian midfielder Paulo Assuncao as new
recruits at the Calderon.
Atletico are in the third qualifying round of the Champions
League after finishing fourth in the Primera Liga last season.
