Crystal Palace have signed Croatia wing-back Borna Sosa from Ajax for a reported fee of £3million.
Sosa has penned a three-year deal at Selhurst Park and will provide competition for Tyrick Mitchell down the left flank.
The 27-year-old has won 26 caps for his country and is excited to further his career in South London.

He told the club’s official website: “I’ve heard so many good things about the club. I cannot wait to meet the players, the staff, and all of the fans, because I’ve heard so many good things. I’m very, very excited to be here.”
A fantastic fit for Palace – Parish
Sosa started out at hometown club Dinamo Zagreb, with whom he won a domestic double, before a stint in the Bundesliga with Stuttgart and then Ajax, moving to Amsterdam in 2023.
He struggled for game time with Ajax and spent last season on loan at Torino.
Palace chairman Steve Parish said: “We believe Borna will be a fantastic fit for Crystal Palace. His credentials speak for themselves, and his arrival adds additional quality, experience and depth to our squad. I look forward to welcoming him to South London.”
Palace won the FA Cup last season but are waiting to discover if they can play in the Europa League with John Textor, who also owns Lyon, in the process of trying to sell his stake to American Woody Johnson.
