Huddersfield have completed the signing of striker Laurent Depoitre from FC Porto for an undisclosed club-record fee.

The 28-year-old, who has played once for Belgium, joins on a two-year deal with an option for a further season.

Depoitre, who joined Porto from Belgian side Gent in 2016, is the club's first signing since winning promotion to the Premier League last season.

Manager David Wagner described Depoitre as "a proper striker".

He added: "He scores goals and is a real worker too, so he will fit the 'Terriers Identity' very well.

"I am very happy that we have made Laurent our first signing of this summer window."
