German giants Bayern Munich have agreed a deal to sign Liverpool's out-of-favour goalkeeper Pepe Reina.
Bayern claim a medical will take place in the coming days after a fee was agreed with the Merseyside club, and personal terms have been sorted with the long serving Liverpool 'keeper.
After a great 5/6 years at Liverpool, winning the FA Cup and saving three penalties in the shootout to become the hero, reaching the UEFA Champions League final and saving two penalties in the semi final shootout against rivals Chelsea, and winning the Carling Cup in 2012 against Cardiff. He has been regarded as a hero, and a fan favourite at Anfield since his arrival, and after Simon Mignolet's arrival last summer, Reina's time at Liverpool has come to an end, and he will move to Germany to become Manuel Neuer's understudy.
After returning to the club after a successful loan spell at Napoli, it now seems that he will move away permanently.
He has made 394 appearances in 9 years at the club.
Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge said:
"Pepe Reina was eager to come to Bayern Munich. He wanted to embark on this adventure even though he knows that, in Manuel Neuer, he has a keeper in front of him who, if nothing changes, will always remain the number one."
"The player will come to Munich in the next few days for a medical examination and to sign his contract.
