New Players for Ajax

[SPL]

Would we get Becker or Menig back ,both doing well at PEC.

Both are still under contract, correct? What about da Sa, is still Ajax or was he transferred?

[SPL]

Becker 2017, Menig 2019 ,de Sa 2016 so he will,get,a free this summer.

@SPL - thanks for clarifying the contract situation. With Muric and Cerny already having first team football and Younes looking like he has locked down the left wing maybe the club tries to sell Fischer.

[SPL]

Reading the comments on Ajax showtime for the Jong Ajax game someone says El Ghazi and family are in Milan for the weekend.AC Milan wanted him back in the winter and I guess he could leave in the summer if we get a 10 to 15m bid.

A few flashy goals but he has been nothing special since before Christmas .I see him doing a Kishna and leaving for Italy before he is ready. Cerny and Muric on the right, Younes and Fischer on the left but they are all inverted wingers and we may see Fischer leave and so we may either buy a winger or give Becker or Menig a chance.

[Orange14]

Good luck at Milan who likely won't even qualify for Europa League football. I guess if we get the kind of money that SPL mentioned it would be OK. el Ghazi still needs to work on a lot of things but his problem is that he thinks he is the next Christian Ronaldo. He's not!

[SPL]

I have put comments on El Ghazi leaving under players leaving post.

Back to new forwards El Azzouzi scored another goal the other night and is doing well at Twente. He should have got a lot more playing time at Jong before Christmas,clearly far better than Hendriks. He could be our back up striker.

It will be interesting to see who our 6 forwards are in the squad next season ie El Ghazi,Schone Milik Fischer all likely to leave and only Younes staying. We have Muric,Cerny ,El Azzouzi, Zivkovic,Becker,Menig ,who could break through plus Nouri can be used as a left winger to start with.

anyone heard anything about KJH? I saw an article last week where he himself stated he was considering returning this summer. Maybe it will depend on champions league?

[SPL]

Nothing concrete about the Hunter returning but if Milik leaves I think KJH will return.

[Ayman]

If Huntelaar returns, does that mean no Zlatan? After all Zlatan can play on the left side or as a playmaker

[Ayman]

I am really praying that Vincent Janssen doesn't come to Ajax. I mean seriously, virtually all players from AZ Alkmaar have been poor for Ajax, or at best average. Lindenbergh, de Zeeuw, Kenneth Perez, El Hamdoui, Sigthorsson, Moisander, and more recently Gudelj (did i miss any? Gudelj's younger brother doesnt count!). Please no more! Vincent Janssen belongs to PSV, along with Ron Vlaar.

[SPL]

Danilho Doekhi, the young Excelsior defender, signs a contract to 2019 today.

Regards Ayman's post ,AZ players have not been fantastic signings and I would hope KJH returns if Milik goes.

[SPL]

In addition to replacing any leavers Ajax have said a new winger and striker will be signed.Reports today that we will abandon the max wage policy so we can attract better players and give current ones more money.

Still want anyone but Overmars recruiting players.

Good, the 1M cap was pretty arbitrary, and we're loaded...

SPL maybe this paves the way for KJH to return?

Sure maybe we pick up Huntelaar but I think we are going to be at the table begging for scraps. there is just too much money in England and with some of the other big clubs in Europe that we won't get any good experienced players to come over and play for a club that is likely to see Europa League football at best. Overmars and the management missed the boat as the policy should have been changed three years ago when Ajax still had a chance to compete for players. That being said, the bigger problem is that a clean out of the the management needs to be done but that won't happen unless the stock price keeps going down (lost 10% of value on the Amsterdam exchange yesterday because of the draw on Sunday).

Maybe that's the bigger plan with the loss against De Graafschap - to drive the stock price down so that stock buybacks are cheaper. This is Management's plan of taking Ajax private again

True, Marc Overmars told me about this when he invited me over to order coffee in a lunchroom.
After that, he left me with the 2,15 euro bill.

[Sandro]

I am amazed that he didn't let you pay and take the bill himself to declare the 2,15 euro at Ajax, so he had a free coffee and 2,15 euro profit!

Oh he did let me pay but asked me to charge via e-mail our consumptions and the 41 minutes of my time. I never charge him for talking about Ajax, but he always wants to have an invoice I have no idea what he's doing with them.

You can reach him by the way on [email protected]

[Orange14]

Imagine the hate mail he must be receiving!

[SPL]

Another young defender signed, 16 year old Boy Kemper from Volendam signed a 1 year contract to June 2017. Youth transfers have to be complete by mid June hence we have so many already signing.

[Ayman]

One of us should write an open letter for him to resign.

[Orange14]

Remember how Ajax were hot on the trail for Martin Ødegaard from Norway? Turns out he's not doing well at all over at Madrid: https://www.redbulletin.com/uk/en/sport ... n-odegaard

[Ayman]

Kids never learn! I think its their parents who go for big money, I would understand if it was a family from the Antilles, or from Africa. But this Norwegian kid came from a well off family. What is their excuse?
