Journalist Fabrizio Romano confirmed that Bayern Munich has successfully recruited midfielder Hiroki Ito from Stuttgart for 30 million Euros.

Hiroki Ito became Bayern Munich’s first rookie this summer

To get the services of Hiroki Ito, Bayern Munich had to spend 30 million Euros. This is the amount of money to release the contract between him and Stuttgart.

Journalist Fabrizio Romano read out the familiar “Here we go” slogan to signal that the deal was complete. The Japanese player will soon be introduced to his new team in the next few days.

The 25-year-old centre-back has been a mainstay of the Japanese national team in recent times. Last season, Hiroki Ito excelled with Stuttgart.

Hiroki Ito reached an agreement to join Bayern Munich.

The White Swans won runner-up in the Bundesliga, ahead of Bayern Munich. The player born in 1999 contributed greatly to helping Stuttgart only concede 39 goals all season, the second fewest in the tournament after champion Bayer Leverkusen.

Hiroki Ito is Bayern Munich’s first signing under Vincent Kompany. Next time, they will try to recruit Jonathan Tah.

On the other hand, Dayot Upamecano and De Ligt will likely be liquidated. The future of Eric Dier and Kim Min Jae is being questioned.
