The 32-year-old former Borussia Dortmund and Manchester United star joined PAOK this January from Real Zaragoza in the Spanish second tier, but had not played since this season's opener in September.

Kagawa, who played at the 2014 and 2018 World Cups, has 31 goals in 97 games for Japan.

The playmaker won two German Bundesliga titles with Dortmund under Jurgen Klopp in 2011 and 2012 before winning the English Premier League title with Manchester United the following year in Alex Ferguson's final season in charge.

Kagawa, who started his professional career at Cerezo Osaka, won the German Cup with Dortmund in 2012 and again during his second spell in 2017. He had a loan spell at Turkish side Besiktas in 2019 before moving to Zaragoza.
