Frank Leboeuf has completed his move from Chelsea to Marseille after signing a two-year contract with the French club.

Leboeuf travelled to his native south of France yesterday to finalise personal terms and undergo a medical after a deal was agreed between the two clubs.

The 33-year-old defender, who had just one year left on his Chelsea contract, found his place in the starting line-up at Stamford Bridge under threat following the emergence of John Terry and the signing of William Gallas.
