Dortmund will initially sign Couto on a one-year loan deal, with an obligation to buy at the end of the loan period. According to previous reports from multiple sources, the transfer fee will be €25 million, plus €5 million in add-ons.
Couto had already been training with Dortmund in the team’s training session today, wearing the club’s jersey. His transfer is now officially complete and he will wear the number 2 shirt for the Yellow and Black army next season.
