Monaco, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 29th Aug, 2018 ) :German international defender Benjamin Henrichs joined Monaco on a five-year deal from Bayern Leverkusen on Tuesday, the Ligue 1 club said, for a reported fee of 20 million Euros ($23.3 million).
The versatile 21-year-old who can play at right-back, left-back or as a defensive midfielder played more than 80 matches in four seasons with the Bundesliga club.
He was part of Germany's Confederations Cup-winning side in 2017 and looks likely to feature in Joachim Loew's future plans as he sheds the more experienced stars after the disastrous World Cup in Russia.
"His arrival improves the quality of our team," Monaco's vice-president Vadim Vasilyev said on the club's website.
Henrichs said the 2017 Champions League semi-finalists "have been a top European club for many years".
