"Borussia" from Dortmund officially confirmed that they have acquired one of the most promising Spanish players, Mikel Merino. It is reported that the team coached by Thomas Tuchel has signed the 19-year-old midfielder, who will join the club from July 1st, for the fee of 5 million euros. Bundesliga representatives tried to lure Merino in January, but back then they couldn't reach an agreement with the Spanish club. "Mikel is one of the biggest talents in Spain. We are very happy that he will be playing for our team starting from the next season," said Borussia's sporting director Michael Zorc. "I am honored to be playing for the Dortmund club soon. This team demonstrates exceptional football and plays in one of the most impressive stadiums in Europe," Merino expressed his joy. This season, the midfielder played 22 matches in the second-tier Spanish championship, scored 1 goal, received 7 yellow cards, and one red card. "Osasuna" is currently in 7th place.
