Sheffield United have announced the signing of Gustavo Hamer from Coventry City.
The 26-year-old Dutch midfielder puts pen to paper on a four-year contract and will wear the No 8 shirt. He is Sheff Utd's sixth arrival of the summer transfer window.
"I still can't believe it, playing in the Premier League is every little boy's dream and I'm going to be doing it with Sheffield United, a massive club," Hamer told the club's official website.
"I've played here before with Coventry and I remember the song when the players walk out, it's amazing, thrilling."
