Jonah Kusi-Asare is now officially ready for Bayern Munich.
AIK confirms now that the 16-year-old is leaving for the big German club.
– It is with both joy and sadness that we note that Jonah is now leaving us. We would have liked to see him develop in AIK, says the men’s team’s sporting director Thomas Berntsen the website.
Great drama has been going on in recent days around AIK’s 16-year-old Jonah Kusi-Asare.
As late as Saturday night, the talent’s agent finalized negotiations with PSV representatives, all according to FotbollDirekt’s sources.
On Monday, it became clear that Bayern came up with a bigger increase at the last moment, which caused PSV to back out.
Now this Thursday there will be information that the deal has been officially presented.
– It is with both joy and sadness that we note that Jonah is now leaving us. We would have liked to see him develop at AIK, but the situation at the club and the player’s willingness to explore this adventure led to Bayern Munich’s bid being accepted. It should also be said that the offer that was accepted is the highest ever for such a young player from the Allsvenskan, says the men’s team’s sporting director Thomas Berntsen to AIK’s website.
Kusi-Asare himself speaks out.
– I’ve been at the club for a year, but it feels like I’ve been here all my life. There were only four appearances in the Allsvenskan and now I’m taking the next step to Bayern Munich. I wish AIK all the luck and success. Thank you for everything, says the 16-year-old.
According to Expressen, the deal gives AIK around SEK 60 million. This is information that FotbollDirekt.se has also reported on previously. In addition, there will be bonuses that can give Gnaget another 20-25 million kroner.
