Joseph Akpala has temporarily ended his Werder Bremen nightmare as he has joined Turkish Super League side Karabükspor on a season - long loan deal, writes ntvspor.net.

Note that the transfer window in Turkey remains open despite it being shut on Monday in several parts of Europe.

The 27 - year - old attacker passed the medical examination conducted on Tuesday before Karabükspor announced that the deal has been completed.

The former Club Brugge star tested with Reading last month but the Championship side delayed in offering him a contract.

He will meet his new teammates for the first time on Thursday during training.

Karabükspor occupy the second position in the league with 7 points from their first 3 matches.
