The Dutch keeper is said to be the last piece of the puzzle in McCarthy’s defence.
“We were short in the goalkeeping department of someone who can save you plenty points during the season. As much as Sage Stephens was exceptional, he needed some competition and luckily we got a guy who has been at Ajax Amsterdam for 14 years. He came with big reviews and you see that big difference in our side now,” said McCarthy.
