Stoke City have completed the
signing of Netherlands international Ibrahim Afellay.
The 29-year-old winger was released by Barcelona at
the end of last season.
Stoke chief executive Tony Scholes is delighted to see
off competition to land the player, who has signed a two-year deal as Mark
Hughes prepares his squad for the forthcoming Premier League campaign.
Scholes said:
“It’s no secret that Ibrahim was wanted by a number of clubs and
we are understandably delighted that he has chosen to join us.
“He’s
clearly excited about the prospect of playing in the Premier League and the
fact that he knows so many players who are already at the club will no doubt
help him settle into his new surroundings.”
