Gulselam signs for Hannover

Hannover have signed midfielder Ceyhun Gulselam on a free transfer from Galatasaray.

The 26-year-old has joined on a two-year deal after spending three seasons in the Turkish capital, where he won one Super Lig title and the Super Kupa on two occasions.

"With Ceyhun Gulselam we have undertaken for the defensive midfield position a player who brings the experience of over 100 top flight games in Turkey," sporting director Dirk Dufner told the club's official website.

Gulslam spent eight years in the youth system at Bayern Munich but came to prominence at Trabzonspor, where he won the first of his six Turkey caps, earning himself a move to Galatasaray in 2011.
