Crystal Palace has secured the services of Croatian defender Borna Sosa from Dutch giants Ajax Amsterdam. The Eagles have locked down the Zagreb-born star with a deal running through June 2028. Palace officials completed the transfer after identifying Sosa as a key target for their defensive rebuild. The 26-year-old brings Premier League experience and international pedigree to Selhurst Park. Club bosses believe his versatility will strengthen their squad depth significantly.

Sosa built his reputation at hometown club Dinamo Zagreb before making waves across Europe. The Croatian international helped secure a domestic double during his breakthrough 2016 campaign. Stuttgart came calling two years later and witnessed his attacking prowess from the back. The left-back racked up an impressive 35 assists alongside five goals across 115 appearances in Germany. His standout 2020-21 season featured ten assists that caught the attention of major European clubs.

Ajax snapped up the defender in September 2023 but saw limited action with just 25 outings. Italian side Torino provided a temporary home last season where he featured in 20 matches. The veteran has represented Croatia on 26 occasions while netting twice for his country. His contributions helped the national team claim third place at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. Palace supporters will hope his international experience translates into Premier League success.
