Czech 'keeper Koubek moves from Rennes to Augsburg

Prague - Czech goalkeeper Tomas Koubek is moving from French top-flight side Stade Rennes to Bundesliga side Augsburg on a five-year deal, his agent Viktor Kolar said in a statement Tuesday.

The 26-year-old Koubek played 67 league games in his two seasons with Rennes and led the team to a French Cup win last season.

The value of the deal has not been disclosed.

"Augsburg was very keen and that was a major motivation for me," said Koubek, who has played nine international games for the Czech Republic.

Augsburg finished 15th in the Bundesliga last season.
