Sandro Wagner was previously said to be interesting Sheffield Wednesday.
Little more than 18 months after he was linked with a £2 million move to Sheffield Wednesday, striker Sandro Wagner has signed for Bayern Munich.
The Sun on Sunday reported in May 2016 that Wednesday were targeting the recently capped Germany international, who was then a Darmstadt player.
He later signed for Hoffenheim, however, and scored 18 goals in 50 games there – prompting Bayern to come calling ahead of the January transfer window.
The reigning Bundesliga champions are reported to have paid €13 million [£11.5 million] to secure the services of Wagner, who began his career with them, on a contract until June 2020.
Sheffield Wednesday have since added strikers Steven Fletcher, Jordan Rhodes and Sam Winnall for a similar amount of money, although the trio have scored only 26 goals in 119 games between them.
30 year old Wagner is expected to provide cover for first choice striker Robert Lewandowski in Munich.
Will Sheffield Wednesday’s struggling strikers come good for the Owls?
