Hull City have officially announced the signing of 20-year-old Norwegian midfielder Jens Hjerto-Dahl. He joins the Tigers from Tromso on a five-year deal for an undisclosed fee.
Hjerto-Dahl has been in impressive form in the Eliteserien this season, scoring seven goals in 14 appearances. His arrival adds significant attacking impetus to the midfield, as he arrives as one of the league's joint-second highest scorers midway through the campaign.
I'm very happy. It's a massive club and I'm really looking forward to playing here. I needed a challenge and this is the biggest challenge you can get. Jens Hjerto-Dahl
A Norway Under-21 international, Hjerto-Dahl brings valuable European experience having participated in both the Europa League and Conference League qualifying rounds. He becomes Hull's sixth summer signing, joining fellow newcomers Oscar Zambrano and Hidemasa Morita in Sergej Jakirovic's midfield setup.
