Former Napoli attacker Marek Hamsik has joined Gothenburg after two years in the Chinese Super League, the Swedish side announced on Monday.

"I am very happy to be here and am positively surprised by the great training opportunities that exist here," he said.

"As everyone knows, I am here on a short-term contract but I will do my utmost to help the team achieve success. Now I put my whole body and soul into this club," he added.
