Dutch topflight club FC Twente have announced on their official website on Friday that they have signed Tyronne Ebuehi on a season-long loan from Benfica with an option to buy, ahead of next season.
Speaking on the loan move, the Super Eagles right-back disclosed his reasons why he decided to join Twente.
“It feels great to be here at FC Twente,” Ebuehi said.
“The conversations I had with the club were very positive and I am looking forward to playing here.
