Olympique Lyonnais has completed the signing of centre back Jerome Boateng on a free transfer from Bayern Munich, the French club said on Wednesday.
The 2014 World Cup winner with Germany has signed a two-year contract at the Ligue 1 side.
The 32-year-old spent 10 years at Bayern after joining from Manchester City in 2011, winning nine Bundesliga titles and two Champions League trophies.
"I want to give my best for this club. I am looking forward to meeting my team mates. This is a quality squad with young players, to which I can bring my experience," said Boateng, who featured in 29 league games for Bayern last season.

Lyon, with a win and two draws from five games, is ninth in the Ligue 1 table.
