Grifo signs Borussia Monchengladbach deal
After an impressive campaign for Freiburg, Vincenzo Grifo has opted for a switch to Bundesliga rival Borussia Monchengladbach.
Vincenzo Grifo has signed a four-year deal with Borussia Monchengladbach following an excellent season with Freiburg.
The 24 year-old helped Christian Streich's men into a UEFA Europa League qualifying spot, finishing above Gladbach on its return to the Bundesliga.
His contribution of six league goals from midfield caught the eye of Borussia's sporting director Max Eberl enough to prompt a switch, which will be completed on 1 July.
"Vincenzo Grifo has developed in a really interesting way in the last couple of years in Freiburg," Eberl said. "He played a key role in their outstanding season and will make us much more flexible going forward next season. We're really pleased to be able to bring him to Gladbach."
