BREAKING NEWS: Dortmund agree deal for Hummels return
Mats Hummels is set to return to Borussia Dortmund in a deal worth a reported €38million after a transfer agreement with Bayern Munich was announced.
The World Cup winner left Signal Iduna Park for Bundesliga rivals Bayern in 2016, having moved to Dortmund from Munich in 2008, but is now heading back the other way.
Hummels will now undergo a medical with BVB, who finished second in the Bundesliga in 2018-19 after the Bavarians overtook them in a gripping title race.
Errors from an inexperienced backline contributed to Dortmund's failure to see out their first title triumph since 2011-12.
However, Lucien Favre's men have moved quickly in the transfer window, bringing in Nico Schulz, Julian Brandt, Thorgan Hazard and now Hummels.
