The Bundesliga club says on its website that the 26-year-old Djurdjic has agreed on a deal until summer 2016.

Both sides agreed not to disclose the transfer fee.

Djurdjic, who has been on loan at Swedish side Helsingborg since August, will join up with his new teammates on Jan. 3.

Fuerth secured promotion to the Bundesliga for the first time this season but has managed only a league-low 11 goals. The club is bottom of the table, 10 points from safety, at the halfway stage.
