Just days after a two month contract with the Spanish league's Iberostar Tenerife ended, Carl English has signed with German team Alba Berlin.

Alba Berlin plays in the Basketball Bundesliga (BBL), considered the highest level of professional basketball in Germany.

The team publicly welcomed the Patrick's Cove, N.L. native on its Twitter account on December 6.

English, 35, responded to the news on his own Twitter account.

"Alba Berlin. Next step of the journey! Let's go!," he wrote.

On Wednesday, English scored two points in just under 5 minutes of court time for Alba Berlin in a Euro Cup game against Lietuvos Rytas Vilnius out of Lithuania.

Earlier this year, English told CBC News he had been hoping to get in one more year of professional play before looking towards retirement.
