Borussia Dortmund midfielder Mario GAtze has consented to join Bundesliga rivals Bayern Munich next season. The targeting midfielder's release clause in his contract has been triggered, according to his representative Volker Struth and his club, and he'll join the German champions on 1 July. Dortmund's Facebook page confirmed the news headlines, even though the club stressed they'd yet to hear anything established from the newly-crowned Bundesliga champions. The statement read: "Mario Gotze's adviser Volker Struth told us several days before that the player wishes to utilize his discharge clause and on July 1, 2013 move to Bayern Munich." Hans-Joachim Watzke, Borussia Dortmund's CEO, also stated: "We are certainly unhappy beyond measure, but emphasise that both Mario and his agents have behaved within the terms of the contract. From Bayern Munich there has been nothing official on this issue as much as this date." The German newspaper Bild had earlier in the day noted that the offer worth a37m (A32m) with the Germany global until 2016 had been closed. The functional 20-year-old GAtze, who won league games in 2012 and 2011, is one of the most gifted young players in Germany and had been the goal of several top European clubs. Bayern, who've already won the Bundesliga title, have also agreed a deal with the former Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola to lead their team next year. The Bavarians get on Barcelona in the initial leg of their Champions League semi-final on Tuesday evening and have reached the German Cup final as well.
