Murphy, a Republic of Ireland U-21 international, is a versatile defender and can play not only at left-back but also central defence.
“Alex has already proven at his previous clubs that, despite his young age, he possesses high quality and can therefore take on responsibility on the pitch.
His strengths include his positional flexibility and his control of the game, which also fits our aggressive style of play off the ball.
“We are delighted to have acquired another talented player who fits our squad planning perfectly,” said sporting director Marcel Klos.
