Dutch striker Milan Smit is leaving Go Ahead Eagles for Stoke City for a record fee of 5.5 million euros, pending a medical examination. The transfer for the 22-year-old surpasses the club's previous record sale of Oliver Antman for 4.4 million euros. Smit is set to sign a multi-year contract with the English club, which is seventh in the Championship. Go Ahead Eagles had signed Smit from SC Cambuur in the summer of 2024 for just over eight hundred thousand euros, and his contract was set to run until mid-2028. This season in the Eredivisie, Smit has scored two goals and provided five assists in six appearances. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is €2.00m.
