Borussia Dortmund announces Merino capture

Mikel Merino will leave Osasuna for Borussia Dortmund at the end of the season after signing a five-year deal with the Bundesliga side.

Borussia Dortmund has announced the signing of Mikel Merino, who will complete the move from Osasuna on July 1 for a fee believed to be in the region of 5 million euros ($5.6 million).

The Bundesliga outfit attempted to bring in the Spain Under-19 international in January, but the transfer fell through as Dortmund refused to meet Osasuna's valuation of the midfielder.

However, the clubs have since agreed to terms and Merino penned a deal at Signal Iduna Park until June 2021 on Monday.
