New Players for Ajax

[Orange14]

dries mertens thinks he would fit well into the ajax style of play. i can see us make a move for him again in the summer

Personally, I don't think we need another small player.

We have enough midgets as it is!

[souras84]

get us a proper number 9 to start and then, find siem de jong his position on the field

I'm afraid that de Jong's only real position is as striker. Unless he develops a lot more quickness (which is more genetic than acquired) he really can't play in the midfield, his passing is too slow.

[souras84]

and his finishing is too poor. and i didnt mention the speed

[rjf1]

I dunno -- he was a goal scoring monster for a while last year. Maybe he can get that back.

Many of his goals were headers last year and I'm not sure that's the case this season. I'm also hoping he can get the touch back as well.

danish outlet sportsbladet says we are among a small crowd of clubs checking out this guy, who i've seen, he's a bit of a swedish dzsudzsak...

a video clip of him in action: http://vimeo.com/19408346

yes, he does, i can easily see him in the red stripe

[bluedaddy19]

word going around is pranjic will be brought over this summer, in part for his own talents and in part in effort to get the best out of his buddy sulejmani

[souras84]

COULD WE BUY PAPASTATHOPOULOS FROM MILAN? please... a great talent!!! pleeeeeeaseeee

[FearNoArt]

Ajax are close to a deal with viktor Fischer from FC Midtjylland.. He is not a typical striker, but more like Jon Dahl Tomasson.. He will cost around 10 million Dk which i s about 1,5 euro.

[Michael_B]

Frank de Boer has confirmed the deal with Fischer.

[SPL]

He has chosen us over Chelsea and Man City. I know he is not yet 17 but we have paid over a million euros for him and paid out similar sums for Boilesen and Eriksen .EPL teams take kids for nothing on their 16th birthday by buying off the parents. Ajax do not do this .

Derk Boerrigerter (24, RKC, winger) seems to be our first incoming transfer for the coming season.

[orange goblin]

The Danish Wave is growing: we contracted toptalent Viktor Fischer

reports say that we are looking at sigthorsson and matavz for a summer transfer. sigthorsson is more likely as it is believed matavz has already reached an agreement with napoli. i wouldn't mind sigh, but wonder is dost is still in the picture as well

[Rooie]

Serero (Ajax CT) seems to be joining us after a positive trial

Serero 'definitely' leaving Ajax Cape Town

Apr 28, 2011 2:09 PM | By Sisa Majola, Sapa
Ajax Cape Town forward Thulani Serero will "definitely" move to Ajax Amsterdam at the end of the season, while the Dutch giants are still considering defender Clayton Daniels.

This was confirmed on Thursday by the Cape club’s chief executive, George Comitis, although he said they wanted to keep the details under wraps until the season ends.

“They (Ajax Amsterdam) are definitely taking Thulani but we want to confirm the deal when the time is right,” said Comitis.

“With Clayton, it’s a maybe at this moment, and there is a very good chance. We will have to wait and see.”

Nice! Foppe says Serrero can fit in Ajax squad, so i trust him! He said the same about Daniels. De Boer may be is waiting to see what's going to happen with Verthongen and vd Wiel. He'll probably take Daniels as well. So 2 new good players without money. Perfect

yeah matavz is basically gone to napoli already

i would still prefer van wolfswinkel to any of these other eredivisie forwards

[Orange14]

According to Ernst Bouwes we are interested in Kolbeinn Sigthórsson of AZ. I haven't seen enough of him to make any judgement. Price was mentioned as €5M.

[Michael_B]

Ajax supposedly offered 2M euro.

Ajax supposedly offered 2M euro.

AD says this was rejected and we have returned quickly with a better offer

frankly, i think we absolutely need either him or gerndt, one of the two

i would also greatly appreciate grabbing victor wanyama from GBA, he is going to be a great DM
