Nancy have decided not to sign American shooting guard Mark Karcher after putting him through his paces during a two-day trial over the weekend.

The 25-year-old former St Francis Owls player arrived at the mid-table Pro A side on Saturday as Nancy look to boost their squad after an inconsistent start to the season.

However, the club have decided against signing Karcher, who hails from Baltimore, and will now continue their search to improve the attack.

Nancy currently lie eighth in the table and were defeated 65-81 - a second straight defeat - by Dijon in their last match on December 19.

They resume action on Saturday after the Christmas break with a trip to Le Havre.
