Dortmund: Borussia Dortmund have bolstered backline with the signing of Argentine center-back Aaron Anselmino, who joins the Bundesliga club on a season-long loan from Chelsea FC.
According to Qatar News Agency, the 20-year-old, previously with Boca Juniors, is expected to provide immediate reinforcement amid absences of key defenders Emre Can, Niklas Sule, and Nico Schlotterbeck.
"We had been monitoring Aaron since his time at Boca Juniors," said Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl. "He's a very good solution for our current situation."
Anselmino expressed enthusiasm about the move: "I'm really looking forward to playing for Borussia Dortmund. I'll give everything to succeed with this great club and its fantastic fans."
Dortmund opened their season with a draw against St. Pauli last week. Anselmino could make his debut in the club's upcoming home fixture against Union Berlin on Sunday.
