Ghana defender Daniel Opare has joined German Bundesliga side Augsburg from Portuguese club Porto.

 "Daniel is a young, talented player who has already gained match practice at various clubs in Europe.

"But we are sure that his development is not yet complete."

Opare said: "I look forward to the challenge of playing with the FC Augsburg in the Bundesliga. 

I only heard good things from Baba Rahman."
