Portuguese top-tier club Vitoria Guimaraes have announced the signing of Ghanaian youngster Maxwell Woledzi on a long-term contract in the ongoing summer transfer window.
Woledzi has joined the Black and White lads on a three-year deal from Danish outfit FC Nordsjaelland for an undisclosed fee.
The 20-year-old joins the club on a long-term deal after successful negotiations and passing his medicals earlier this week.
Lasts season, the highly-rated defender featured in 24 games in all competition for the Danish side.
Woledzi made 33 appearances for Nordsjaelland in total, having joined them in 2019, scoring once and providing one assist.
“I chose Vitória because I believe it is the best step for my development, that's why I'm here. When I heard about Vitória's interest, I went to research the club, its history, and I quickly realized that it is a club that bets on young players,” Woledzi told the club's official website
“I also looked at the example of Abdul Mumin, who is a player I really like, like an older brother, who has evolved a lot since he arrived in Guimarães. I also saw that they have very devoted fans, how they support the team and that will push me even more. I want the fans to see that I am a player who gives everything for this emblem.”
Woledzi is a graduate of the Right to Dream Academy.
