Bordeaux have snapped up left-back Diego Contento from Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich.
Contento, 24, has been a bit-part player at the Allianz Arena since emerging in 2009. He makes the switch to Ligue 1 after completing his medical yesterday.
“Once we targeted improving the left-back position, it became clear that Contento could be an interesting choice,” Bordeaux boss Willy Sagnol said. “We have a highly motivated player with a desire to show his true level.”
