Bayern Munich chief Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has congratulatedBorussia Dortmund over their deal for Shinji Kagawa.

After two years with Manchester United, Kagawa re-signed for BVB last week in a deal worth £.6.3 million.

The Japan international is regarded as a genuine star inside German football and Rummenigge says the Bundesliga will be stronger for his return.

"Every transfer to the Premier League is a shame - and this was one without question - so we should welcome him back," said Rummenigge.

"We need a big competition and emotionality in the Bundesliga. Each well-known player is welcome."

Borussia Dortmund are on the brink of a knockdown deal forManchester United midfielder Shinji Kagawa.

The Daily Mail says Kagawa is set to complete his return to Borusssia Dortmund for £6.3million - just two years after leaving the German side.

Kagawa will sign a four year contract with the Dortmund, who sold the Japanese playmaker to United in 2012 for £12million.

But injuries have stunted the midfielders progress, and after failing to fit into David Moyes' side last season, he has now been deemed surplus to requirements by new manager Louis van Gaal.

Valencia were also interested in the Japan captain, but Kagawa wanted to return to the club where he made his name in European football.
