ISTANBUL (Reuters) - German forward Mario Gomez has joined Besiktas on loan after two unhappy, injury-plagued seasons at Fiorentina, the clubs said on Thursday.

Gomez arrived at Fiorentina with a reputation as one of Europe's most deadly poachers, but managed only 29 league appearances and seven goals for the Serie A side.
