The Czech top league club Banik Ostrava has signed a contract with veteran Marek Jankulovski.

The 34-year-old footballer left Milan last summer and became a free agent. In June, he announced his retirement, but now he has changed his mind and shook hands with his homeland team.

Interestingly, 11 years ago he arrived in Italy from the Banik team, which at that time was exchanged for Napoli. Later he represented Udinese, and since 2005 - Milan.

Jankulovski played 78 matches for the Czech national team and ended his international career in 2009.
