Blues Seal De Ridder Deal

Newly-promoted Birmingham have added Holland Under-21 winger Daniel de Ridder to their squad for the new Barclays Premier League season.

The 23-year-old, who was part of his country's successful European Under-21 Championship campaign, was out of contract with Spanish side Celta Vigo.

Don't know much about de Ridder. It was Rigters, Babel, and Drenthe who received most of the attention during Holland's U-21 tournament victory. But it looks like de Ridder set up two of their four goals in the final match. So maybe he's someone to watch out for next season. But someone correct if I wrong in thinking that Sebastian Larsson already plays on the right side of Birmingham's midfield.
