BREAKING: Bayern Munich Midfielder Completes Move To Borussia Dortmund

We're getting used to Borussia Dortmund players making the switch over to Bayern Munich. Robert Lewandowski, Mats Hummels and Mario Gotze are just three big names to make the journey over to the Allianz Arena.

So it makes a change when Borussia Dortmund sign a player from Munich as midfielder Sebastian Rode has completed his move to Westfalenstadion, with a deal reportedly costing in the region of 10 to 15 million.

The 25-year-old is seen as a perfect replacement for Ilkay Gundogan, who left Dortmund to join Pep Guardiola at Manchester City last week after intense speculation surrounding his future.

Rode has struggled to gain first team opportunities at Bayern in recent months, making just 17 appearances and playing only 399 minutes in the Bundesliga this season.

The German under 21 international has made the move to Westfalenstadion as he looks to gain regular first team football to push for his first full international cap.

Rode confessed that he was unhappy with his playing time earlier in the season as he spoke to Goal:

"Pep Guardiola isn't talking a lot to me, so I don't really know where I stand or why I am not playing on a more regular basis," he said.

"Matthias Sammer is talking more often to me, he comes up to me and he knows my situation of course. A lot of people within the club are satisfied with me, but I am not satisfied with my playing time."

Is Rode a good signing for Borussia Dortmund?
