The Ruhr outfit have brought in a new pair of hands to challenge Roman Weidenfeller for a place between the posts ahead of next season
Borussia Dortmund have completed the signing of goalkeeper Roman Burki from Freiburg.The 24-year-old played every game of the Bundesliga season as his club was relegated.
Dortmund have now pounced for the young custodian, who had just completed his debut season in Germany's top flight.
Burki impressed sufficiently despite being unable to save his club from the drop, keeping nine clean sheets.
Details of the transfer were not released by Dortmund when they announced the deal on Sunday.
The rising Switzerland international will now provide competition between the posts for Roman Weidenfeller and Mitch Langerak, with new BVB boss Thomas Tuchel looking to renew a side that slumped to seventh under former coach Jurgen Klopp last term.
Burki has two caps for his country, having played in friendlies against Poland and United States in the last 12 months.
