Second twin leaves Munich

Borussia Dortmund have sealed the signing of German starlet Sven Bender from 1860 Munich. Sven and his twin brother Lars are rated amongst the finest midfield prospects in Europe. Lars has already been signed by Bayer Leverkusen and now Sven has confirmed his departure. Borussia have agreed a cash plus player offer as Serbian international full-back Antonio Rukavina heads in the opposite direction. "Sven is a talented young player with a lot of promise for the future," Borussia Dortmund executive Hans-Joachim Watzke stated. "He fits right into our plan and he will increase the competition in our midfield."
