Crystal Palace announce Jairo Riedewald signing

Crystal Palace announce that they have completed the signing of Ajax defender Jairo Riedewald.

Crystal Palace have announced that they have completed the signing of Ajax defender Jairo Riedewald.

Since Frank de Boer was named as Sam Allardyce's replacement, Palace have been linked with a number of Dutch players, including 20-year-old Riedewald.

Despite his age, he has already made his debut for the Netherlands and featured on 81 occasions for Ajax, but he has now agreed to make the switch to Selhurst Park.

Last season, Riedewald made seven appearances during Ajax's run to the Europa League final, where they suffered a 2-0 defeat to Manchester United.

The versatile defender - who can play at centre-back of left-back - has penned a three-year deal with his new side.

Riedewald joins Chelsea midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek in making the switch to the London outfit.
