Swiss pacesetters FC Basel have swooped to sign Daniel Majstorovic from FC Twente.

Basel have stepped in to land the Sweden international defender after losing Patrick Muller to Lyon.

The 28-year-old is happy to make the move and feels he could stake a claim for a World Cup place in the coming months.

"I am joining a better club, it's a good solution for me," Majstorovic told Sportbladet.

"It is a big and professional club with the ambition to play in Europe every year.

"I want to be in the (World Cup) squad and this move will bring me a step closer to the World Cup."
