Mainz 05 have confirmed the capture of Anthony Ujah from Chinese Super League outfit Liaoning FC in an undisclosed three-and-a-half years deal.
Ujah was on the books of the German Bundesliga side in the 2011-12 season before transferring to FC Cologne where he spent three years.
36 goals in 102 appearances for the Billy Goats earned him a move to Werder Bremen where he scored 14 times in 37 competitive duels. And in the summer of 2016, the 27-year-old moved to China to team up with Liaoning.
Swayed by his return to the Opel Arena, sports director, Rouven Schröder said: "Anthony Ujah is an athletic, determined and strong attacker who has proved his qualities at the Bundesliga level and adds real value to our squad, and he is a great character and will not be due to his Mainz past.
