David Trezeguet has signed for La Liga newboys Hércules Alicante after having his contract terminated by Juventus.
The Frenchman was made surplus to requirements at the Italian giants this summer and a move to Spain beckoned, with Real Zaragoza and Hércules locking horns for his signature.
Hércules have now won the battle and Trezeguet joins on a free transfer, with the 32-year-old's wife, who was born in Alicante, reportedly playing an influential role in the surprise decision.
The Spanish club made the news official this evening and will pay him €1.5 million per season on a two-year contract.
Trezeguet spent 10 years with Juventus, scoring 171 goals since joining in 2000.
He won three league titles with the Bianconeri, including Serie B in 2007, played in the 2003 Champions League final and was Serie A top scorer in 2002.
