Official: PSG acquires promising defender from "Ajax"

Paris Saint-Germain announced that they have acquired promising 19-year-old footballer Mitchel Bakker from Amsterdam's Ajax.

The French champions signed the Dutch player for free, as his contract with Ajax expired this summer. He agreed to a four-year contract with PSG.

Bakker, who plays as a left-back, did not feature in Ajax's main team last season. The young Dutchman had occasional appearances in cup matches.

M. Bakker can also play on the right side of defense.
