Bayern Munich have announced the signing of Chilean midfielder Arturo Vidal from Juventus on a four-year deal that will keep him until the summer of 2019.
The 28-year-old was heavily linked with a move away from Turin last summer, but remained with the Italian champions as they lift the Serie A title for a fourth time and reach the Champions League final.
