Huddersfield Town complete signing of Dutch midfielder Juninho Bacuna from FC Groningen
The 20-year-old has signed a three-year deal with the Premier League club
Huddersfield Town have completed the signing of Dutch midfielder Juninho Bacuna from FC Groningen.
Bacuna, a Netherlands Under-21 international, has agreed a three-year contract with the Premier League club, with the option of a further year.
The 20-year-old is the Terriers’ third new arrival this summer, after they turned Terence Kongolo's season-long loan from Monaco into a permanent deal and signed Egypt winger Ramadan Sobhi from Stoke last week.
Manager David Wagner said of the signing: "I'm delighted that we've been able to bring Juninho in, especially before we report back as it allows him to have a full pre-season with the team.
"He's a young, hungry player that has already played a lot of football for someone of his age and even if he's still very young, he strengthens our options in this position after we lost Dean Whitehead to retirement at the end of last season.
"He's an exciting midfielder that offers all the aggression of a defensive midfielder and the technical skills and mobility of an offensive midfielder."
