The ltalian top-flight outfit have landed the signature of the talented winger of Ghanaian origin from the Dutch top-tier campaigners this summer
Serie A side Como 1907 have announced the signing of Dutch-born Ghanaian teen Jayden Addai from Eredivisie club AZ Alkmaar on a five-year contract.
The 19-year-old is believed to be greatly admired by the Spanish gaffer Cesc Fabregas and has now succeeded in securing his services in this current transfer window.
An official confirmation over the capturing of the talented budding star read: ''Como 1907 is pleased to confirm the signing of Dutch winger Jayden Addai from AZ Alkmaar. The 19-year-old joins the club on a permanent deal until June 2030.
''A product of AZ’s acclaimed youth system, Addai made his Eredivisie debut last season and was also a member of the AZ team that won the UEFA Youth League, having already scored 15 goals in the Eerste Divisie for Jong AZ.''
Addai has said of his move to his new employers in the ltalian top-flight via the club's official website: ''I am thrilled to be here and to have the opportunity to join such a prestigious club as Como 1907. The club has an ambitious project, and I can’t wait to help achieving great goals. This is my first experience away from home, but I am quickly settling in and feeling very confident and determined. Como is a special place. I visited the lake last year and found it lovely: a pleasant climate, great food — a place where you feel really good”.
Head Coach Cesc Fàbregas added: ''Jayden is direct, technical, and brave. He’s already shown real quality at a high level, and we believe this is the perfect place for him to grow and thrive. We’re excited to have him with us.”
The promising wonderkid featured in 36 games by netting 10 times and assisting 4 for AZ across all contests in the just ended football season.
Given his Ghanaian heritage, the talented youngster remains fit to play for Ghana at the international level as he is yet to be cap-tied by The Netherlands national team
