Cameroon international Pierre Wome has joined Werder Bremen from Serie A side Inter Milan on a free transfer.

The 27-year-old defender has signed a two-year contract with the Bundesliga outfit.

Wome has played for Cameroon 67 times and scored five goals.

He made 12 Serie A appearances for Inter last season and played in seven Champions League matches.

Wome missed the penalty that cost Cameroon a place in the World Cup finals.

Cameroon were awarded a penalty in timed added on and Wome's kick hit the post.

Inter offloaded another player on Wednesday with veteran defender Giuseppe Favalli joining city rivals AC Milan, also on a free transfer.
