Matthew Jr Amoah, who is the son of former Ghana International Matthew Amoah, has signed his first professional contract with Feyenoord until 2027.

The 15-year-old inked a three-year deal with the Dutch side after impressing at the club’s youth levels.

He joined the Eredivisie side in 2018 from NAC Breda.

"I am very proud to have signed my first contract with Feyenoord," he said.

"I have been playing for the club since I was a young boy and have worked towards this wonderful moment all these years. Next season I want to take the next step in my development and I hope to be important for my team again by giving assists and scoring goals."

Matthew Jr will feature in the Dutch top-flight next season as Feyenoord hope to wrest the title away from PSV.

His father, Amoah Snr, had already made his name in the country, having featured for NAC Breda and Vitesse Arnhem.

At the national level, he has 45 caps for the Black Stars, scoring 12 goals and represented the nation at notable tournaments including the 2006 and 2010 World Cups.
