Berlin: Striker Anthony Ujah, who scored 10 goals in the Bundesliga this season to virtually ensure Cologne`s survival in the top flight, has signed a four-year contract with Werder Bremen.
"We looked into him for very long and very intensively to have a full picture," said Bremen sports director Thomas Eichin.
"He is a quick, dangerous striker who can develop further with us."
Ujah`s explosive speed, scoring ability and wild celebrations -- at times with the club`s mascot which is a goat -- made him a crowd favourite.
He played 62 second division games, scoring 24 goals, and has netted 10 in the Bundesliga this season to help Cologne into 11th place, six points above the relegation zone with three matches left.
