Borussia Dortmund have completed the signing of Joane Gadou from RB Salzburg.
The Black and Yellows confirmed the arrival of the highly rated 19-year-old centre-back on Tuesday afternoon, with Gadou set to join the Bundesliga giants this summer after putting pen to paper on a long-term contract running until 2031.
“We have known Joane for a very long time and have been monitoring him since his time at Paris Saint-Germain. Joane will strengthen our squad and play an important role for us right from the start of the new season. We are convinced of his qualities and see enormous potential for his sporting development," said BVB sporting managing director Lars Ricken.
Gadou, who has represented France at youth level on 30 occasions, expressed his excitement about the move.
“I’m absolutely delighted to be joining the BVB family and can’t wait to pull on the Black & Yellow shirt for the first time. I want to achieve success in the coming years together with my teammates, the whole club and our incredible fans," he said.
