Freiburg, Germany – Freiburg signed defender Karim Guede from Slovan Bratislava on Thursday, as the struggling Bundesliga side continued its winter makeover.
The German-born Guede was a regular for Slovan from 2010-11, and is a Slovakia international. He started his career in Hamburg's youth ranks, and returns to Germany to try and help Freiburg avoid relegation.
Guede is the fourth new arrival this January, following Fallou Diagne, Michael Lumb and Sebastian Freis to the Dreisamstadion.
Freiburg is in last place in the Bundesliga at the winter break, five points from safety. Freiburg hosts Augsburg on Saturday.
