"Roma" club announced that they have acquired Rotterdam "Feyenoord" defender Rick Karsdorp for 14 million euros. However, the transfer fee could increase by an additional 5 million due to bonuses. The right-back Dutch player has signed a five-year contract with the Italian club. The 22-year-old footballer is a product of the "Feyenoord" academy and has already played in more than 100 matches for the main team. This season, he triumphed in the "Eredivisie" championship. "The move to 'Roma' is a big step for me," Karsdorp told the club's official website. "I come here with great passion and enthusiasm to play and fulfill my dreams." "I know I still have potential to improve, and I hope to do that here." Including the additional 5 million euros, Karsdorp has become the most expensive player ever sold by "Feyenoord." Previously, in 2006, the legendary Dirk Kuyt was sold to "Liverpool" for 17 million Euros.
