Andreas Johansson has left Wigan Athletic to sign a three-year contract with AaB Aalborg.
The Swedish midfielder failed to have a significant impact at the JJB Stadium following his £450,000 move from Djurgardens in January 2005.
He started just four games in the Premier League last season and made 40 appearances in total during his time with The Latics.
New Wigan boss Chris Hutchings has allowed Johansson to return to Scandinavia after a deal was struck with AaB.
The Danish club are delighted with the transfer after admitting to a lengthy pursuit of the 29-year-old.
"We have been wanting to sign Andreas Johansson for two years now and all the time he has been our top priority when it came to reinforcing our attacking midfield," sporting director Lynge Jakobsen told the club's official website.
"We have signed a player of an extremely high standard, but we are still looking for more new players."
Johansson's arrival at AaB will compensate for the loss of Rasmus Wurtz after he signed for Danish champions FC Copenhagen.
