Ex-German international, Lucas Podolski, has sealed a return to Europe after joining Turkish Super Lig side on a free transfer.

The former Arsenal striker, 34, spent three years with Japanese side Vissel Kobe.

Antalyaspor sits one point adrift of safety having picked up just three wins from 18 league matches.

Podolski arrives with a winning mentality having picked up three major pieces of silverware including the World Cup in 2014.

He bagged 17 goals in 60 appearances for Vissel Kobe and will hope to add firepower to Antalyaspor’s attack that has scored just 15 this campaign.

Podolski, who has 130 caps, began his career at boyhood club Koln where he now boasts a fledgling business of kebab shops.
