Doncaster have signed former Tottenham defender Pascal Chimbonda on a short-term deal, subject to a medical and approval from the Football League.

The French full-back has been out of contract since being released by QPR in April this year but new Rovers boss Dean Saunders has swooped to secure the 32-year-old's services until the January transfer window.

Chimbonda featured for a Doncaster second-string side in a 3-2 victory over a Chesterfield XI today and will be looking to help move his new club off the foot of the npower Championship table.
