Manchester City’s Danish defender Niclas Jensen has signed for German side Borussia Dortmund.

The fee has not been disclosed but Jensen’s agent Karsten Aabrink confirmed today that the player had put pen to paper.

“Niclas completed a move to Borussia Dortmund this morning,” Aabrink said. "He passed his medical and has agreed a three-year deal with them.”

The Denmark international, who still had one year left on his contract with the Premiership club, will join up with his new team-mates at a training camp in Austria.

Jensen will be seen as a replacement for Jorg Heinrich who has joined Cologne.

Jensen’s City options were limited with former Bayern Munich defender Michael Tarnat expected to begin the season as Kevin Keegan’s first-choice left-back.
