I am proud to play for Borussia Dortmund, a top club with incredible fans.”Later the same day, Dortmund confirmed the signing of Julian Brandt from Bayer Leverkusen.Brandt, who has spent much of 2018/19 playing in central midfield, has put pen to paper on a five-year deal.The 23-year-old, who was a target for Liverpool before they signed Mohamed Salah, said: “In the case of Borussia Dortmund, I have a very good feeling.
