Burkina Faso international Bakary Kone has joined Turkish Super Lig clubs Ankaragucu respectively.

Kone, 30, joins newly-promoted Ankaragucu on a two-year deal with the option for an additional year, just a few days after terminating his contract at Spanish side Malaga.

"I received many offers but Ankaragucu showed a lot of determination that is why I chose to come here," the defender told the Ankaragucu website. 

Kone, who has previously played in the French top flight with Guingamp and Lyon, spent last season on loan at Strasbourg making 27 league appearances.

Born in Ouagadougou and capped 67 times, he has played in five countries.
