FC Köln have snapped up Mark Uth on a free transfer from Schalke 04.

The Köln-born forward returns to his former club on a two-year deal with an option to extend.

"I am really pleased to be back at home and can’t wait to get stuck into pre-season with the lads," said Uth.

FC Köln coach Steffen Baumgart commented:

"It is an absolutely positive signal that Mark Uth is joining us. He is a player who fits what we wanted – he can score goals and is very experienced. Along with that, his qualities in the build-up and his vision are well-known.”
