French striker Anthony Modeste has joined Chinese Super League club Tianjin Quanjian from FC Koln for a reported transfer fee of £31m.
The 29-year-old scored 25 goals for the German side last season to help them qualify for Europe for the first time in 25 years.
Modeste had looked set to finalise a move last month, only for the deal to be called off after the two clubs failed to reach an agreement.
However, Koln released a statement on Wednesday in which they confirmed that "all relevant parties have agreed" to the transfer.
It added: "Koln thanks Tony for his efforts in the Cologne jersey and wishes him all the best for the future."
Tianjin had reportedly been trying to sign Diego Costa and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from Chelsea and Borussia Dortmund respectively.
