Ghana left back Gideon Mensah has started training with new club Girondins Bordeaux after completing his loan switch.
The 23-year-old wasted no time in joining his new teammates at practice as they prepare for the upcoming Ligue 1 season.
"Straight to work. No time to waste. First training session," wrote the Black Stars player on Twitter.

Bordeaux announced the capture of the Ghanaian defender Gideon Mensah on a season-long loan from Red Bull Salzburg on Tuesday.
The French club has an option to make the transfer permanent at the end of the season.
The former WAFA player is Bordeaux's first summer recruit and will wear jersey number 14. The number became free following the departure of centre-back Vukasin Jovanovic in 2017.
It is his third loan spell since joining the Austrian giants from Liefering in the summer of 2019.
Mensah has spent the past two seasons on loan at Zulte Waregem and Vitoria Guimaraes respectively.
Mensah has been a regular member of the Black Stars since the appointment of Charles Kwablan Akonnor as coach of Ghana.
He played in the friendly defeat to Morocco in Rabat last month.
