Out of favour at Swansea City, Portuguese striker Eder has joined Lille on loan until the end of the season.
Sitting 15th in Ligue 1 amid a disappointing campaign, Lille has been desperate for scoring with only 18 goals in 23 matches, prompting the move for Eder.
"I am very happy to be here," Eder told Lille's official website. "I've been extremely well received by the Lille directors.

"I'm now really looking forward to getting to now my new team mates, to train and to play in the Lille shirt."
The 21-time capped international signed with the Welsh side in the summer from Braga on a three-year deal for a reported fee of £5 million, but has failed to find a place in the squad with only two starts.
His tenure at the Liberty Stadium was further put into question when the club signed Italian forward Alberto Paloschi from Chievo on a three-and-a-half-year contract earlier in the window.
