BERLIN, July 6 (Xinhua) -- Mainz have signed Pierre Kunde from Spanish outfit Atletico Madrid with immediate effect, the Bundesliga club announced on Friday.
The "Nullfuenfer" have bolstered up their midfield with the signing of Pierre Kunde, who has penned an undisclosed contract as both sides agreed to keep silence over further contract detail.
"With Pierre Kunde we have found our desired candidate for the central midfielder position. He is dynamic, robust and dangerous in front of the goal. We have observed him for a long time," Mainz' sporting director Rouven Schroeder said.
The 22-year-old midfielder played on loan at second division outfit Granada where he scored five goals in 37 appearances last season.
"The conditions in Mainz are excellent to take the next step in my career. I am very proud to be with a good club in the Bundesliga and I am looking forward to my first matches," Kunde said.
