Goretzka completed the obligatory medical in Munich on Thursday before putting his name to the contract with FC Bayern.

“We’re very pleased Leon Goretzka, a Germany international with great potential, has decided in favour of FC Bayern despite big-name international competitors. This way Leon Goretzka remains in the Bundesliga,” commented FC Bayern München AG chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge.
