Dortmund sign Alcacer for £22.7m from Barca

Borussia Dortmund have signed striker Paco Alcacer in a £22.7m deal from Barcelona after activating an option in his loan deal following his prolific start to the season.

The Bundesliga leaders signed the Spain international, 25, on a season-long loan in August, with a purchase option.

The ex-Valencia player has scored nine goals in eight games – but only four starts because of injury problems – at an average of a goal every 44 minutes.

Alcacer’s deal runs until 30 June 2023.

His form earned him a recall to the Spain squad after two and a half years away, and he has scored three goals in two games – against Wales and England – since his La Roja return.
