Newcastle United has completed the transfer of Daryl Janmaat in a £5 million move from Feyenoord.
The 24-year-old Netherlands international right-back's arrival to Magpies was confirmed by Newcastle after the departure of Frenchman Mathieu Debuchy to Arsenal was announced.
Janmaat underwent a medical on Tyneside earlier this week before signing a six-year contract and he will replace Debuchy as the club's first-choice right-back.
The Dutchman, who played under new Manchester United new manager Louis van Gaal during the World Cup, said: "Newcastle is a fantastic club, with a big history and a great stadium. I have also been told all about how great the fans are. This is the perfect move for me, and I am really looking forward to being with the team and getting started here at Newcastle."
"We are delighted to bring Daryl to the club. Daryl had an excellent World Cup and we are looking forward to him continuing that form for Newcastle," manager Alan Pardew said.
The Magpies have now completed six summer signings already, with Janmaat following winger Remy Cabella, forward Emmanuel Riviere, midfielder Jack Colback, midfielder Siem de Jong and striker Ayoze Perez.
