Brian Brobbey signs for Sunderland | OneFootball

Sunderland have completed the signing of Brian Brobbey from Ajax on a five-year deal.

After seeing Marc Guiu return to parent club Chelsea after just three games, the Black Cats have managed to bring in a new striker.

"It feels great to be a Sunderland player," Brobbey said after signing for the club.

"I spoke with Nordi Mukiele, who I know from my time in RB Leipzig, and he told me about the Club, the fans, and how it feels like a family.

"I first talked with Sunderland over a month ago, and I have seen the stadium and the fans this season, and I can’t wait to be a part of that passion. It’s emotional to say goodbye to Ajax, as I grew up here and I’m going to miss everyone, but the Premier League is the biggest stage in the world, and I’m ready for this next chapter."

In total, Brobbey played 163 games for the Dutch giants, scoring 56 goals in the process.
