Haji Wright is taking his talents to Germany.

On Friday, after rejoining the club with which he had a trial in 2014, Wright signed a four-year contract with FC Schalke 04 that's due to expire in 2020.

Wright's resume includes the Los Angeles Galaxy and the New York Cosmos, and he's featured for the United States Men's National Team from the under-14 level to the under-18 level.

"We're happy to have added another talented youngster in the form of Haji Wright to our squad," Horst Heldt, Schalke's sporting director, said. "He's a dynamic, deadly striker. We're certainly looking forward to seeing how he'll progress in the next few years."

At Schalke, Wright will link up with the club's under-19 side and is likely to make his first appearance Saturday.
