I reported yesterday that Real Madrid had signed Netherlands striker Huntelaar from Ajax for an unknown fee. There were other reports that suggested that no deal had actually been done, but now everything is official as the club has announced it on its website.

El Real Madrid C.F. y el AFC Ajax Amsterdam han acordado el traspaso del delantero El acuerdo está condicionado, como es habitual, a la superación del reconocimiento médico por parte del jugador y a la firma de sus contratos con el Real Madrid. Klaas-Jan Huntelaar estará ligado al Real Madrid hasta el 30 de junio de 2013.

English (my crappy translation)

Real Madrid and AFC Ajax Amsterdam have reached an agreement over striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar.

The player will go under some medical tests and then sign a contract which will keep him at the club until 30, June 2013.

Way to go!

Hala Madrid!

Marca, AS, El Mundo, Cadena SER and Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf, have all confirmed that Real Madrid signed Ajax' striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar for an unknown fee.

The striker has been chased by many European clubs, however, it seems that he wanted to join his Dutch friends in Madrid.

Huntelaar's record is very impressive. He has scored 75 goals in 90 matches he played for his club and with his national team he scored 7 goals in just 11 matches.

Huntelaar will be able to play in the Champions League of course after he recovers from his injury from which he'll fully recover in January.

He'll certainly strengthen our attacking line. I have always thought that Villa would be better because he is more experienced, Spanish and stuff, but getting him is pretty difficult and I'm convinced that the club made a good signing because if you look at the strikers available in the market, you'd realize that it is rare that there is one capable of playing for Real Madrid.
