German Bundesliga side Borrusia Dortmund have announced the appointment of former Ghana international Otto Addo as their new assistant coach.

The 43 year old will leave his role as assistant manager at city rivals club Borussia Mönchengladbach when his contract runs out at the end of the season.

The former Dortmund attacker will be in charge of youth development, with his focus on overseeing the promotion of players from the youth side to the senior side.

Addo spent six seasons with the Black and Yellow, winning the Bundesliga title in the 2001-02 season, and helped the club reach the UEFA Cup final in the same season, eventually losing to Dutch side Feyenoord.

Otto Addo was a mainstay in the Black Stars setup in the early 2000s, and represented Ghana at the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany.
