Hannover sign Schlaudraff

Bayern Munich have decided to sell Jan Schlaudraff, the striker the only signed from Aachen at the beginning of the season. Hannover have reportedly paid £3 million to take the striker.

Bayern wrote in a statement: "Bayern have decided to terminate his contract which ran until 2010, as requested by the player, and he will join Hanover in July."

Schlaudraff has played for Germany three times, and the move comes somewhat as a surprise.

However, Bayern Munich were never intending to give the striker a chance this year as Luca Toni showed just how good he is.
