American forward Jozy Altidore has joined defending Turkish champion Bursaspor on loan from Spanish club Villarreal for the rest of the season.

Altidore said Monday on his Twitter account that he will be at Bursaspor for six months, a move confirmed by his agent, James Grant Sports.

Altidore has appeared as a substitute in two league matches this season for Villarreal, which loaned Jefferson Montero to Levante on the last day of the January transfer window. Altidore's only goals this season were two against Poli Ejido in the fourth round of the Copa del Rey.
