2. Bundesliga outfit Hannover 96 have completed the signing of Louis Schaub from FC Köln.

The 27-year-old will make the switch to Hannover as a free agent, when his contract expires this summer.

"Louis has already shown at a high level that he can enrich and decisively influence a game with his actions," said Hannover 96 sporting director Marcus Mann.

"Through our talks it became clear that there is a special bond with Hannover 96 through his family," added Mann with a reference to the fact that Schaub's father, Fred, played for Hannover 96 in the past.

Schaub made 29 appearances for Köln this season with one goal and two assists to his name.
