The Ghana-prospect lanky centre-forward had this to tell his new employers right after appending his signature to the deal via the club's official website: '' I have enjoyed training with many talented players in recent days, so I am very happy to be able to make an agreement with a big club like AaB and honored to wear the red and white shirt. There is a good and positive energy in the club with talented players and a talented coaching staff, and I have been welcomed very well by everyone I have met both at the club and in the city.''
''I hope to contribute with my experience from the Bundesliga, 2. Bundesliga and the third-best division in Germany. As a player, I am a classic striker who can hold the ball, distribute it and is present in the box to score, and I have come here to hopefully score a lot of goals.''As a team, I hope that we grow together and that the club's already good unity with the fans becomes even closer. And of course that we can achieve good results and celebrate many victories together.''
Sporting director James Gow added: '' Aaron Seydel has made a positive impression in recent days, as expected, and we believe that he can help us. As a type, with his almost two meters, he is a physically strong player, who is good as a playmaker and strong in the air both defensively and offensively, and he is smart in the penalty area and a good finisher.''
Born to a Ghanaian father and German mother in the city of Langen, Germany, the forward could still switch allegiance and play for Ghana at the international level despite playing for the Germany national youth teams.
