"We are delighted that we were able to convince him of our path, and from the very first conversations we noticed that Kos was keen on joining BVB. Despite all the quality he already brings, we also see further potential in him that we want to unlock together.”

Karetsas, who made 92 appearances for Genk with six goals and 23 assists to his name, said:

“Borussia Dortmund is a special club and I am incredibly proud to now be able to wear the black and yellow shirt. I am really looking forward to meeting my new teammates and playing in this impressive stadium in front of our fans. I want to play my part in helping us achieve success together.”
