Wolfsburg have completed the signing of veteran striker Mario Gomez from Fiorentina.

The Germany international has signed a three-year deal with the Bundesliga side, joining the club for an undisclosed fee.

"I'm looking forward to the new challenge," Gomez told the official Wolfsburg website. "The discussions with [sporting director] Klaus Allofs and [head coach] Dieter Hecking were very good.

"I'm happy to be returning to the Bundesliga. I'd like to play in Europe with VflL and I'm convinced we can do so."

The 31-year-old striker joined Fiorentina from Bayern Munich in 2013, but spent last season on loan at Besiktas.

Gomez featured for Germany at Euro 2016, netting twice in the finals.
