Marc Bartra joins Real Betis from Borussia Dortmund
Wednesday 31 January 2018 10:09, UK
Marc Bartra has signed for Real Betis from Borussia Dortmund on a five-and-a-half-year deal for an undisclosed fee.
Dortmund signed the centre-back from Barcelona in 2016, and during his 18-month spell at the club he made 51 appearances, scoring five goals.
Bartra was present at court in Germany on Monday at the trial for the attack on the Borussia Dortmund team bus last April, in which he suffered an open fracture of the forearm.
The 27-year-old, who graduated from La Masia, prepared a statement which was read out in court by his lawyer.
Bartra spent six seasons playing in La Liga for his boyhood club Barcelona, winning three La Liga titles, a Champions League trophy and the Copa del Rey on two occasions while at the Nou Camp.
