Hiroki Akiyama from Japanese first division club Albirex Niigata is moving to SV Darmstadt 98 on loan with an option to buy.
The 24-year-old midfielder played in 15 matches last season and has already traveled to the Lilies' training camp.
“In Hiroki Akiyama, we're gaining an absolute strategist for the center," explained Darmstadt's sporting director Paul Fernie.
"His ball control and precision, his precise passing even under pressure, and his vision make him a suitable link player.
"With his skills, he has the potential to become an interesting piece of the puzzle for our team next season.
“The fact that he can still participate in at least parts of the training camp will also make his integration into the team easier,” Fernie added.
