Danish striker makes Dutch switch
Dutch champions AZ Alkmaar have snapped up former Chelsea youngster Morten Nielsen.
The Danish starlet is available on a free transfer having been released by the Blues earlier this month.
The 19-year-old has put pen-to-paper on a two-year deal with AZ after passing a medical on Monday.
He is now hoping to force his way into Ronald Koeman's first-team plans and make more of an impression in Holland than he did in England.
"It is a big challenge that awaits me over the coming years," Nielsen told Ekstra Bladet.
"But that is exactly what I wanted.
"AZ believe in me and Ronald Koeman has said that he will play me."
