Huddersfield Town announce the signing of defender Christopher Schindler on a three-year deal for a club-record fee from 1860 Munich.

Huddersfield Town have announced the signing of Christopher Schindler for a club-record fee from 1860 Munich.

The 26-year-old centre-back has signed a three-year contract at the John Smith's Stadium, with the option of a further year at the end of that spell.

The exact figure has not been disclosed, but the club have confirmed that it is a "seven-figure fee" that eclipses the previous record paid for Nahki Wells in 2014.

"I'm very happy to welcome Christopher to the club today. I am totally comfortable breaking the club's transfer record to bring Christopher here," head coach David Wagner told the club's official website.

"It will have been a big decision to leave his hometown club after spending so long there, but Christopher is desperate to come and play for us in the EFL Sky Bet Championship. Christopher is an excellent defender. He is good in the aerial challenge and is a very composed player, who is great at reading the game.

"He will suit our playing style very well, as he is always on the front foot. He is also a fantastic character and another leader in the defensive area for us, which is very important."

Schindler had been with 1860 Munich since the age of nine and made more than 200 senior appearances for the club.
