Jeremy Dudziak has signed a long-term deal with Borussia Dortmund.  The versatile player, who won the Under 19 European Championship with Germany and who can operate as a left back as well as in midfield, signed a contract that will bind him with the eight-time German champions until 30 June 2018.

“Jeremy has developed very positively over the last couple of months, and has deservedly moved up into the first-team squad. It’s good to see one of our very own players reaching the professional ranks,” said Borussia Dortmund sporting director Michael Zorc.

“I’ve been with BVB since the age of 14. It has always been my dream to play professional football for BVB,” said Dudziak, adding: “Now this dream has come true and I promise that I will continue to work hard in the future.”
