Ahmedhodzic's bargain Feyenoord transfer fee revealed
Feyenoord are reportedly paying just under €7 million for summer signing Anel Ahmedhodzic, according to Voetbal International.

Ahmedhodzic has signed a four-year contract in Rotterdam and could make his debut for Feyenoord on Wednesday as the Rotterdam side face Fenerbahçe in the preliminary round of the Champions League. As VoetbalPrimeur explain, Feyenoord are doing everything they can to get the Bosnian eligible to play in the two-legged tie against José Mourinho's team. 'The club are receiving assistance from the KNVB (Royal Dutch Football Association) in this regard.' Feyenoord bought out Ahmedhodzic's one-year contract with Sheffield United for a transfer fee of approximately €6.9 million, VI reports. 'There is also a bonus and resale structure.' Immediately, on first viewing, this seems like a good deal, as Transfermarkt estimates Ahmedhodzic's value to be considerably higher, at 18 million euros.
