Bayern Munich defender Dante moves to Wolfsburg

Wolfsburg (Germany), Aug 31: Brazilian international Dante Bonfim Costas Santos moved from German football club Bayern Munich to league rivals Wolfsburg, both clubs confirmed.

The 31-year-old centre back on Sunday agreed on a three-year deal that keeps him until June 2018 with the 'Wolves', reports Xinhua.

"We want to thank Dante. Bayern experienced with him a very successful time with many great moments and titles," Bayern CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge said.

Dante played a minor part in Josep Guariola's squad planning recently. He scored overall 11 goals in 179 Bundesliga matches and is, since 2013, part of Brazil's national squad.

Wolfsburg face Bundesliga newcomers Ingolstadt at the fourth round on September 12.
