Sparta wanted to extend the 19-year-old’s contract but Tavsan’s demands did not work for the club, and they have decided to sell him to NEC Nijmegen.
Tavsan signs a contract with NEC until 2023 and will be the successor to Anthony Musaba, who is set to join Monaco.
He told the club’s website, “Recently I felt that I was ready for a new step in my career. When NEC signed up and we had several conversations, I wanted to make the move to this beautiful club.”
Tavsan spent last season on loan with Telstar, scoring seven goals and adding three assists in 22 games.
