Sunderland have finalised the permanent signing of Belgian midfielder Jules Ahoka from Royal Antwerp for a rumoured £8 million sum. This agreement marks the club's third summer addition. Medical checks and documentation were finalised on Monday before the move became official. Some media outlets have described the midfielder as a potential Brazilian wonderkid.
Sunderland sports director Florent Ghisolfi spoke about the new addition during chats with Chronicle Live and Sunderland Echo. BBC Sport and The Northern Echo verified the transfer earlier today. Transfermarkt has already updated Ahoka's profile to reflect the move.
