Blind and his former club team Ajax just recently mutually terminated their contract on December 27th of 2022, which allowed the left back to explore his options.

Now he will be competing in the Bundesliga for the very first time in his career.

The 32 year old still has a lot to offer and has recently just proven it on the international stage with his Dutch side. For the Bavarians this signing provides depth in the backline that they desperately need, given the injury of Lucas Hernandez at the World Cup.
