The Bundesliga club confirmed the departure of defender Dante in the summer transfer window to Bayern Munich.
Borussia Monchengladbach have confirmed the exit of their central defender, Dante, at the end of the season. The player will be moving to rivals Bayern Munich for an undisclosed fee. The decision was revealed on the club’s official
website but Bayern are still to confirm the capture.
Dante’s future had been under speculation for the past few months and he was linked to some of the top teams in Europe. He had insisted that his aim is to play for a top club next season as he wants to win trophies.
The club’s sporting director, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Max-c24993 Eberl, stated that the side totally understands the player’s decision to move and thanked the Brazilian for his amazing service. He admitted that the player’s departure will be a great loss for
the side as he has been one of the best player’s for the team this season.
“Although we understand his decision, we are obviously disappointed that he is leaving. We never gave up hope that he would stay here and write history at Gladbach as our top player and a crowd favourite,” he was quoted as saying
in a statement to the club’s official website.
Eberl stated that the Brazilian has been a vital part of the side and his performances have been crucial in determining Monchengladbach’s league standing in the Bundesliga this season. He hailed the centre-back’s displays in this
campaign and wished him the best of luck for his future with the Bavarian giants.
“He'd been with us for three-and-a-half years, which is quite a long period for a foreign player. The fact that he now moves to a bigger club is a result of our good performances this season,” he concluded.
