Alexander Sorloth has completed his move from Crystal Palace to Trabzonspor on a two-year loan deal with an option to extend by an additional two seasons.

Trabzonspor revealed on the Public Disclosure Forum (KAP) that Sorloth will earn €1.5m for the 2019-20 season and the same amount for the following campaign.

The Black Sea based outfit held talks with Sorloth until midnight according to Trabzonspor president Ahmet Agaoglu.

“We held talks until midnight with Alexander,” Agaoglu revealed at his signing ceremony today.

“I want to thank Crystal Palace and his agent who really worked with us to make sure this transfer was completed.”
