The defender has made 17 appearances in the UEFA Champions League (3 goals). Meunier, who will move to the Strobelallee on a free transfer, also brings the experience of 40 international matches (7 goals) to BVB.

"Borussia Dortmund play exactly the type of football I want to play: exciting, authentic and natural. BVB are known for their enthusiastic fans, and the atmosphere during the match with Paris at the Signal Iduna Park influenced my decision if I'm honest. I am ambitious and I want to win titles with Dortmund, as I have done in Brugge and Paris," said Meunier.
