Real's Flavio to go on loan at Borussia Dortmund
|
MADRID, July 29 (Reuters) - Real Madrid´s
Brazilian midfielder Flavio Conceicao will play on loan next season at Borussia
Dortmund, the Spanish champions announced on Tuesday.
Real
said in a statement that the German club would have an option to buy at the end
of the loan spell.
Flavio joined Real from Deportivo Coruna in August
2000 for a fee of $22.5 million, but he was plagued by injuries in his first two
seasons at the Bernabeu.
He was
an occasional starter last term but the arrival of David Beckham from Manchester
United has only intensified the competition for midfield slots.
The
Brazilian was not included in the squad for Real´s pre-season tour of Asia.
