Ajax has secured the signing of Polish striker Arkadiusz Milik, making his loan move from Bayer Leverkusen permanent.
The club confirmed the move Tuesday, and the 21-year-old, aware of the conspicuous timing of the announcement, assured Ajax supporters they were not on the end of an elaborate prank.
