FC Bayern Munich have confirmed the signing of Raphael Guerreiro on a free transfer.

Guerreiro, who recently left Borussia Dortmund after seven years, has put pen to paper on a three-year deal with the German champions.

The 29-year-old Portugal international is looking forward to working with former Dortmund coach Thomas Tuchel at the Allianz Arena.

"When the call came from FC Bayern, I made my decision fast. It’s an honour for me to be able to play for this great club, and I also regard Thomas Tuchel highly from our time together at Dortmund," said the left-back.

"I’m a player who always wants the ball – it’s about controlling the game and I want to create chances. I’ll give my all so that we win as many titles as possible. That’s the philosophy of FC Bayern."

Bayern CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen commented:

"Raphaël Guerreiro has been among the best and most consistent players in the Bundesliga for years. He’s versatile and internationally experienced, and fits perfectly into our team as both a character and player.

"We’re very happy that we’ve been able to sign him and that he’ll be wearing the FC Bayern shirt in the future. The coach and we as management are in agreement that he will undoubtedly enhance our game."
