BAYERN Munich has signed Spain Under-21 captain Thiago Alcantara from Barcelona on a four-year contract in a deal worth 25 million euros (US$32.6 million), the European champion said.
New Bayern coach Pep Guardiola had said last Wednesday that "it was Thiago or nobody" on his wish list of new players at the Champions League winners and the midfielder, who had also been linked with a move to Manchester United, will fly to Munich for his medical in the coming days.
Bayern will pay 20 million euros for the 22-year-old with the extra five million coming from a future friendly match between the two clubs.
Thiago scored a first-half hat-trick for Spain in the final of last month's European Under-21 Championships to claim a 4-2 win over Italy.
