Baku, June 6, AZERTAC

Borussia Dortmund have announced that they have signed Ramy Bensebaini on a free transfer from Borussia Mönchengladbach.

Bensebaini signs a contract at Dortmund until 2027.

The Algerian is to replace Raphaël Guerreiro who last Sunday announced his departure from Dortmund after seven years. Bensebaini is coming off of his second-best season output-wise at Gladbach, having scored seven goals for the club including two against his new club Dortmund, most recently a penalty in Dortmund’s 5-2 win in May.

This is Dortmund’s first confirmed signing of a summer that is likely to bring about a lot of change within the squad. Bensebaini follows the same path that Marco Reus, Mahmoud Dahoud and Thorgan Hazard have all taken by swapping Mönchengladbach for Dortmund.

At Gladbach, Bensebaini is likely to be replaced by Luca Netz as well as new signing from Hertha Berlin Lukas Ullrich.
