Bundesliga championsBayern Munich have agreed deals to sign Hoffenheim duo Niklas Sule and Sebastian Rudy.
According toBild, powerful 21-year-old centre-back Sule will cost Bayern an estimated €25m, while midfielder Rudy will leave Hoffenheim on a free with his contract expiring at the end of the season.
Sule is highly rated in Germany having impressed domestically, particularlyover the last year and a half.He also shone as the German national team came close to winning Olympic Gold in the summer, but lost on penalties against hosts Brazil.
The length of contract that Sule will sign at Bayern is unclear as yet, although Rudy is expected to sign a deal until 2020.
The 26-year-old midfielder has made 178 appearances for Hoffenheim since he joined the club from Stuttgart in 2010.
He didn't make his international debut until 2014, but has since been capped 12 times under national team coach JoachimLow.
Both Sule and Rudy have been part of a Hoffenheim side that sit impressively in third place in the Bundesliga standings, and remain the only side in the league yet to lose a game.
Drawing nine of their 15 games, though, means that they are nine points behind league leaders Bayern, who look set to considerably weaken a potential title rival.
