Aberdeen have signed 20-year-old winger Vicente Besuijen on a four-and-a-half-year deal from ADO Den Haag.
The winger, who played 30 games for his club last season and has featured 25 times this season, has scored six goals and provided 10 assists.
Dons boss Stephen Glass is delighted to have the Dutch youth international, who can play right wing or as centre forward, on board.

He said: “Vicente is a very exciting talent and a player the club fought hard to secure as we believe he has a bright future in the game.
“This is an important piece of investment, similar to when Lewis Ferguson and Ross McCrorie arrived at the club, and it aligns with our commitment to give young players a clear pathway in their careers.
“It is vital we continue to strike the correct balance between experience and youth, but we believe Vicente is a player who will continue to flourish, and we’re delighted he has decided to come to Pittodrie.”

“We look forward to working with Vicente to continue his development.”
