"Jonas is comfortable on the ball and also has a real winner's attitude"
- Tony Mowbray

West Bromwich Albion have signed defender Jonas Olsson from Dutch Eredivisie side NEC Nijmegen.

The left-sided player signs for £800,000 and has agreed a two-year contract with the club, plus the option of a further year.

The fee for the former Sweden Under-20 and Under-21 international could rise by a further £360,000 in performance-related add-ons.


DIFFERENT ASSETS

Manager Tony Mowbray said: "I'm delighted to welcome Jonas to the club. He's got different assets to our other centre-halves.

"Jonas is comfortable on the ball, can pick a pass and also has a real winner's attitude. He's been brought in to increase competition at centre-half and I'm looking forward to working with him and helping to develop his career in the Premier League."

After moving to Holland from home-town club Landskrona in 2005, he has been a regular in the Nijmegen side for the past three years.
