Mike Hanke joins Freiburg

Mike Hanke agrees to join Freiburg from Borussia Monchengladbach.

German striker Mike Hanke has agreed to join Freiburg from Borussia Monchengladbach when his current contract expires.

During the season Hanke delayed the decision to sign a new deal, which led to Gladbach retracting the offer.

Hanke has now been snapped up by fellow Bundesliga side Freiburg, who have qualified for next season's Europa League.

"It's a great package here in Freiburg," Bundesliga.com quotes Hanke as saying. "I had spoken to [head coach] Christian Streich beforehand and got to know the place, and I think I'll fit in well here.

"The opportunity to play in Europe again certainly attracted me, but I also see it as my duty to help the younger players achieve their potential."

Hanke has 12 caps for Germany.
