Dutch Eredivisie champions Ajax have confirmed the signing of Nigerian international defender Calvin Bassey from Scottish club Rangers on a five-year contract.

Bassey has signed a contract with Ajax until June 2027 and arrived in Austria on Wednesday to join the Dutch champions’ training camp.

The Super Eagles defender made 50 appearances across all competitions last season for Rangers and was named in the Europa League team of the season following the Scottish club’s run to the final.

Bassey also played a key role as Rangers won the Scottish Cup in May, adding to the Scottish Premiership title he won in the 2020/2021 season.

His departure will see Rangers pocket a club-record fee of Twenty three Million pounds (£23m), for a player that was bought for £230,000 from Leicester two years ago.
