Zurich, Jan 19 (IBNS): FC Bayern München have signed Leon Goretzka from FC Schalke 04.

The 22-year-old Germany international, whose contract with Schalke expires on 30 June 2018, has signed a four-year contract from July 1, 2018 to June 30, 2022.

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.
