"In Martin Terrier we've gained a prolific, fast and intelligent forward," said Bayer 04 managing director for sport Simon Rolfes. "Martin is a strong finisher and versatile - a good footballer who fits into our team superbly with his profile. We're delighted he's decided to join us."
Terrier, who will train with head coach Xabi Alonso's team for the first time on Friday, commented: "It's been my wish to move to a big club abroad in Europe after seven years as a professional in France. The fact I now get to show my skills with the German double winners is magnificent and a special motivation for me. Bayer 04 also made headlines in France with their achievements last season. It's fantastic to be a part of this team from now on."
