Bayern Munich have confirmed a surprise signing from the English Championship.
The Bavarians have completed the signing of Omar Richards from Championship outfit Reading on a free transfer.
The 23-year-old fullback has penned a four-year deal with the German giants and will wear the No. 3 jersey.

"I hope I can help the team continue to be successful in the future. My thanks to the management at FC Bayern for their trust. Our conversations were very convincing. I can't wait to be on the pitch for Bayern. Mia san mia!"
Richards becomes Bayern's second signing for the 2021/22 season, with the club having secured RB Leipzig defender Dayot Upamecano's signature earlier this year.
