AFC Bournemouth have announced the signing of Philip Billing from Huddersfield Town.

The 23-year-old central midfielder has agreed a long-term contract to join AFC Bournemouth for an undisclosed fee.

He made 43 Premier League appearances, scoring twice, across two seasons in the Premier League before suffering relegation last term.

Billing is AFC Bournemouth's third signing of the summer and says the chance to play under manager Eddie Howe was a big factor behind his move to Vitality Stadium.

"It was an easy decision to make to come into a squad which is full of talented, international players and working with a manager of Eddie Howe's quality," he told the club's official website.

"This is an exciting step forward for me and I can't wait to get started."

Billing has represented Denmark at Under-21 level and will hope to feature for AFC Bournemouth when they open their 2019/20 Premier League campaign at home to Sheffield United on 10 August.
