Junior Flores, a 16-year-old midfielder from Virginia, has signed a four-year deal with German Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund.  The deal won’t go into effect until 2014 once he turns 18.

Meanwhile, he will continue to train and go to school in Bradenton, Florida, while heading over to Germany for informal workouts with the club.

Flores is currently with the US U-17 team in Spain, competing at the AGS Cup.  The team is 2-1-0 already, with wins over Morocco and United Arab Emirates.
