Borussia Dortmund sign Marc Bartra

Bartra secures BVB switch

Borussia Dortmund sign Marc Bartra

04 June 2016 - 06:17

Reported Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool target Marc Bartra has completed his move to Borussia Dortmund on a long-term contract. The Spain international has accepted the deal following his lack of playing time at Barcelona last season.

  • Mauricio Pochettino confirms fresh injury blow for Chelsea star
  • Arsenal want to make four marquee signings this summer

  • The 25-year-old never managed to attain a stable role at centre-back with the likes of Gerard Pique and Javier Mascherano preferred ahead of him in the pecking order.

    Dortmund have now triggered the player's reduced release clause of £6m, and the move will go through when the transfer window reopens in July.

    Bartra is regarded as a like-for-like replacement for German defender Mats Hummels, who has already agreed to join Bayern Munich over the summer.
