Borussia Dortmund have signed Paco Alcacer on a one-year loan from Barcelona.

Dortmund paid €2 million for the loan and could keep the 24-year-old for an additional €23 million next summer. 

Alcacer leaves Barcelona two years after joining from Valencia. Having appeared in only 37 La Liga matches since then, he is now hoping to revive his career in Germany.

"I'm looking forward to playing in the Bundesliga, one of the best leagues in the world, and for BVB in front of those incredible fans and the famous Yellow Wall, which is something magical for probably every footballer," Alcacer said.
