And a second signing for Bayern Munich. After Xherdan Shaqiri, the Swiss midfielder who disembark from FC Basel in late season, it's a defensive rookie has joined Bayern Munich. In success with Borussia Moenchengladbach this season, the Brazilian central defender refused an extension to meet the challenge proposed by the Bavarians and commit to June 2016.

Saturday afternoon, Dante will be his final appearance before his audience with the jersey of Borussia Moenchengladbach on the shoulders. Perhaps the main interest will he whistled, who announced his departure at the end of the current fiscal year, and while the battle with club Schalke 04 to snatch a Champions League qualification for fiscal year 2012-2013?

Failed to Losc
