Bayern announce the signing of Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting

Bayern München have sealed the capture of Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting on a one-year contract.
Former Hamburger SV, Mainz and Schalke forward Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting has completed his switch to Bayern München on a free transfer.

The 31-year-old, who was available on a free transfer after leaving Paris Saint-Germain at the end of his contract, has signed a one-year deal with the German champions.

"I'm glad that we were able to sign Eric. Offensively, he gives us depth that we will need. Eric has gained international experience at Paris Saint-Germain, he knows the Bundesliga and joins us on a free transfer. It all fits together very well," said Bayern sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic.

"It's a great feeling to be back in the Bundesliga to play for the biggest club in Germany," said Choupo-Moting.

"Who wouldn't want to play for FC Bayern? It's an honor to play for this club. At FC Bayern, it's always the ambition to win everything, and I'm highly motivated to achieve the goals of the club," he added.

The 31-year-old striker scored a total of nine goals in 51 games for PSG.
