Vitesse has strengthened its squad with the signing of Jeredy Hilterman, a 28-year-old striker who has previously trained with the club on trial. Hilterman has signed a contract until mid-2027, with an option for an extra season. He played on loan for Cambuur last season and had limited perspective on playing time at Arminia Bielefeld. The eight-time Surinamese international made his professional debut at FC Utrecht and has also played for FC Emmen, NAC Breda, Almere City, and Willem II.
In an interview with Vitesse's website, Hilterman expressed his enthusiasm for returning to the Netherlands and contributing to the team. "I know the competition well and know what's expected of me," he said. "Now I want to join the team as quickly as possible and show myself again." Vitesse's trainer, Rüdiger Rehm, is pleased with the signing, citing Hilterman's past performances in the Keuken Kampioen Divisie. Rehm aims to help Hilterman regain his top form, which he believes will make him a valuable asset to the team.
