PARIS (AP) — Leipzig defender Nordi Mukiele has signed a five-year deal with Paris Saint-Germain, the French champion said Tuesday.

Financial terms were not disclosed.

The 24-year-old right back played in France for Montpellier before spending four seasons at Leipzig.

Mukiele played 146 matches for the Bundesliga club, scoring 10 goals and delivering 11 assists. He won the German Cup with Leipzig in May.
