AFC Bournemouth have completed the signing of Dutch international winger Arnaut Danjuma, subject to international clearance.

The 22-year-old arrives from Belgian outfit Club Brugge for an undisclosed fee, putting pen to paper on a long-term contract at Vitality Stadium.

He is the Cherries’ fourth signing of the summer, following the arrivals of Lloyd Kelly, Jack Stacey and Philip Billing.

Danjuma rose through the youth system at PSV Eindhoven before joining NEC Nijmegen in the summer of 2016, where he impressed in the second tier in Holland.

Last summer saw the right-footer earn a move to Club Brugge and during his one season at the Jan Breydel Stadium he helped Blauw-Zwart finish runners-up in the Belgian First Division, scored in the Champions League and scored on his full international debut for the Netherlands.

"Coming to AFC Bournemouth is a really good step up for me," Danjuma told afcbTV.

"The Premier League is a great place to play your football, especially at a club like this.

"I’m excited to be here. The last 24 hours have been a bit crazy but I’m delighted to be at the club and I’ve only heard positive things about it.

"I think the way the team plays suits my style, I like to attack and I cannot wait to get started."

AFC Bournemouth chief executive, Neill Blake, said: "Arnaut is another outstanding addition to our squad and I’m delighted that he is an AFC Bournemouth player.

"This is someone we have been tracking for a number of years, who has all the attributes to become a key player for this team.

"Football is about entertainment and, as a technical, attack-minded player, I’m confident Arnaut will excite our fans and they will enjoy watching him."
