Xinhua, August 19, 2015 Adjust font size:
Monchengladbach signed Berlin's talented defender Nico Schulz, both Bundesliga outfits confirmed in official statements on Tuesday.
The "Foals" reinforce their injury-hit defense with the signing of left-sided defender Nico Schulz, who passed the medical to put pen to paper on a four-year deal that keeps him in "Gladbach" until June 2019.
"We closely observed the development of Nico Schulz in the past few years therefore we are pleased that we were able to sign him. Nico can play on the left side, defensively as well as offensively. He fits perfectly into our team," Monchengladbach's sporting director Max Eberl told the club's official homepage.
The 22-year-old new arrival made his professional debut for Hertha Berlin in August 2010 to score two goals in 98 appearances ever since. Schulz made besides those 12 caps for Germany's under-21 national team.
