(Reuters) - Borussia Dortmund have signed German forward Maximilian Beier from TSG Hoffenheim on a five-year contract, both Bundesliga clubs said on Monday.

The 21-year-old, who recently made his debut for the German national team, will help bolster the attack of last season's Champions League runners-up, as striker Niclas Fuellkrug recently departed for West Ham United.

The financial details were not disclosed, however, German media said that Dortmund will pay around 28.5 million euros ($31.14 million) for Beier.
