Werder Bremen have announced their first signing of the winter transfer window.

Manchester City defender Issa Kaboré has had his loan spell at Benfica cut short to join the Bundesliga club for the remainder of the season.

“Issa is a very exciting player who’s got experience in a number of different leagues in different countries despite his young age," said Werder head or professional football Peter Niemeyer. 

"Due to Olivier Deman’s imminent transfer and Felix Agu’s injury, the opportunity has opened up at short notice for us to sign Issa on loan until the end of the season. He fits the profile we wanted perfectly, as he’s flexible and can play on both sides. 

“We want to make sure that we have multiple options for every position. We’re very happy that we’ve been able to complete this loan signing in such a short time.”

Kaboré said he's "really looking forward" to his new challenge.

"Werder have had a very good season so far. I want to play my part in us building on a strong first half of the campaign, and to get to know the club, the fans and the city."
