OFFICIAL: Wolfsburg to sign Ajax sensation Bazoer

Wolfsburg have confirmed the signing of promising midfielder Riechedly Bazoer from Ajax.

The 20-year-old has signed a four-and-a-half-year deal at the Volkswagen Arena and will link up with the club after the Bundesliga's mid-season break.

Wolfsburg have paid €12 million for the six-cap Netherlands international, according to a statement on the Ajax website.

"We've been busy with Riechedly Bazoer for a long time and are now very happy that he has chosen VfL Wolfsburg despite other well-known offers – and also in the long run," Wolfsburg's head of sport Olaf Rebbe said in a statement.

"He is only at the beginning of his career and we are convinced that he will make the next step in his development with us.
