Simon Falette has left Eintracht Frankfurt to join 2. Bundesliga outfit Hannover 96, the two clubs have confirmed.

The 28-year-old centre-back has signed a permanent contract with Hannover, joining the club on a three-year deal.

"We play in the 2. Bundesliga, but we have a team suited for the Bundesliga," Falette said.

"The conditions here are very good for a great season. My task is clear: I have to be ready from the start and integrate quickly."

Frankfurt announced earlier today that 30-year-old goalkeeper Felix Wiedwald has joined FC Emmen in the Netherlands.
