Lorenzo Ebecilio

I don't think this chap already had a player thread of his own, so here we go.

Here's his Player Passport on Ajax.nl.

Ebecilio has agreed to the terms of an improved contract that will tie him to Ajax 'til the summer of 2014. He will sign later this week.

And oh yeah, another thing: I wasn't aware of it when he got booked in Tilburg, but he will be suspended for one game (that's Den Haag away) due to accumulated yellow cards.

He scores an average of one card per two games. Even for a defender or an Enoh-like footballer that's high.

[Philippe]

A winger with Edgar Davids style

Great potential though.

1 or 2 of his cards was down to inexperience imo rather than being dirty . I have been impressed with him but I think 2 games a week have caught up with him a bit . Mind he misses ADO .

Contract nearly signed is good news.

I will admit: someone surprised me today, in a rather pleasant manner.

and left footed strikes!!!

Last year which was his best year, he didnt make such an appearance. Can he keep playing like this? 80% or so will do

From the Ukraine today reports that Ebecilio has now signed for Metallurg Donetsk fee about 500k euros. Ajax have not officially confirmed but assume they will do so tomorrow.
Thats 7 players now left this month .

Good move Lorenzo. They really adore black people over there in Ukraine.

@Cruijff - LOL Big Time!

[SPL]

I too had a laugh. Hope he does well. At that club is another former Ajax youth Danilo Campos Sousa son of old boy Wamberto. Danilo is Belgium and left us 2or 3 years ago. I also noted another Dutch lad there ,ex Az youth so Ebecilio will have 2 team mates from back home.

[Kowalczyk]

Confirmed now: Ebecilio to Metallurg Donetsk (Ukraine).

Thank you and good luck, Lorenzo!

Ebecilio has left Ajax. On June 7th his transfer to FC Gabala (Azerbaidzjan) was finalized.

Good luck, Ebecilio.
