Bayern Munich on Friday announced Germany defender Nathaniel Brown has joined the club from Eintracht Frankfurt on a deal running until 2031.

The defending Bundesliga champions paid a reported fee of 55 million euros ($63 million) to Frankfurt to bring Brown, 23, to the club, where he will compete with injury-troubled Alphonso Davies in the left-back position.

Calling Bayern “one of the best clubs in the world”, Brown said conversations with coach Vincent Kompany convinced him to make the move.

“I’ve always dreamed of playing for the biggest titles at the highest level; I set myself the highest goals and want to get the maximum out of myself every day.”
