The Championship excites me and the plans of the club going up higher makes me excited. I’ve always played in Holland and I want to try something different.

“I’m a player that likes to play football, I like to take risks. I’m a confident player.

“I am not the kind of player who kicks the ball into the stand, I like to keep the ball at my feet and play the game.

“I want to show that I am good enough to be a first choice and I am ready, waiting and excited to get started.”
