Sheffield Wednesday have signed FC Twente defender Darryl Lachman for an undisclosed fee.

The 25-year-old has agreed a two-year deal with the Championship side.

The former Ajax player has won four caps for Curacao, who are managed by ex-Netherlands and Barcelona striker Patrick Kluivert.

"I had to look for something else and I was excited when I saw Sheffield Wednesday were interested in me," he told BBC Radio Sheffield.

"It will be a new challenge for me and I don't know what to expect but I think that the level will be higher than in Holland.

"It is important for me to sign for a club with ambition and I want to help the club reach the Premier League."
