- Published
Sunderland have confirmed the signing of Bertrand Traore from Ajax.
The Burkina Faso international has signed a one-year contract at Stadium of Light, with the option of a further year.
"I'm really happy to join Sunderland. It's a huge Club, and for me it feels great to be back in the Premier League." Traore said.
"From far away, I've seen the way the team has started the season, the movements, the atmosphere around the Club - everything looks positive. I'm excited to be part of this project and part of this team.
"It helps as well that I already know a few players, like Simon Adingra, and of course Brian [Brobbey], who also joined today. Having those relationships and my past experiences in England will make it easier to settle quickly.
"I'm looking forward to stepping out at the Stadium of Light and giving my best for the fans."
