FC Hansa Rostock have signed Swedish international Rade Prica for a fee of around €2.5m.
Clause in contract
Initially, the 1. Bundesliga club simply loaned the player for the coming season. However, following the acquisition of Bundesliga television rights for the coming season by KirchMedia and the resulting guaranteed income it provided, Hansa have decided to take advantage of a clause in their loan contract with Helsingborgs IF to buy Prica on a permanent basis.
'A unique challenge'
The 21-year old forward forward went on Sweden's pre-FIFA World Cup tour but did not make it into the final 23-man squad. "I am looking forward to move to Germany," Prica said. "This will be a unique challenge for me."
