New Players for Ajax

[orange goblin]

It seems that we are very close to sign el hamdaoui, but old mates de ridder and mido could be even closer!

[GangstaRiB]

El Hamdaoui and Mido are IN!!!!

I have my doubts about Mido, but he is a very good sub.

El Hamdaoui is GREAT news.

[afcajax73]

fantastic.... if mido can be controled and motivated then hes worth a good 20 goals(ish) a season

[saddlerian]

Great news that the board are spending.....but does this mean that Louis is on his way????

[bluedaddy19]

Always remember Timothee Atouba. The guy cost us the league in the one match he played against PSV (I know it's a bit too harsh).

i know... i'm the one who stated with full belief that he would be a total waste of a player when he arrived

[Blind3]

Ajax Netwerk has talk of Sulejmani being loaned to West Ham .Seems Zeljko Petrovic is a Hammers assistant and has some pull . This move opens the way for Mounir El Hamdaoui and Mido, or so AN suggests.

[orange goblin]

now de ridder and the squad is completed.
I bet sulejmani and aissati have their days over, although they will go only on loan. then you have to get rid also of wielaert and sno, and to loan some other guys, 3 at least, in order to have the right number of players to work with.


stelekelenburg
van der wiel alderveireld vertonghen anita
de zeeuw lodeiro enoh
suarez el hamdaoui emanuelson

vermeer
blind oleguer lindgren atouba
bonevacia? de jong eriksen
de ridder mido zeegelaar

plus verhoeven and suk (or sarpong). 24 players.

sell/loan: sulejmani, aissati, wielaert, sno
loan (or with reserves): bodul, sarpong (or suk), donald (or bonevacia) and/or van der heijden
with jong ajax: kappelhof, boilesen, ozbiliz
It seems a pretty good team, if you ask me.

[acab]

Sarpong with the 1st squad!

[Orange14]

Nice to wake up to some good news this morning. If we can keep our three internationals this team could be something special this season. I'm getting excited!!

[Amol]

I'm trying not to get too excited till August 31st. We have all been here before and have seen crazy shit happening over the past 5-6 years on the last day of the transfer period .

[Amol]

Can't get any work done. I'm continuously hitting refresh on 6-7 different websites to see official confirmation of the transfers.

[GangstaRiB]

El-Ham is for 100% sure. I have a source which is at the end stage of the deal.

[Amol]

Good news then. Ajax Netwerk is saying that according to Mike Verweij (a De Telegraaf reporter), Hamdaoui will be presented tomorrow during the the pre-match press conference.

[Think14]

Good for us to sign El Hamdaoui. If we can keep the most important players (stekelenburg and suarez) the league has got to be ours.

www.think14.squarespace.com - trying to get an ajax blog started, let me know what you think!

[ajaxcolombia]

Finally some good news. I really hope he won't be a bust.

[SPL]

Good news at least we have some forwards . And the only 1 who cost us anything has scored goals in Holland so we know what he can do .

[acab]

Whats the situation with De Ridder? Is he comming or not? I can't find any more information about his transfer

[cdnajaxfan]

It appears that Mido, De Ridder and El Hamdaoui are probably coming:

Might as well bring back Zlatan, vDV, and Sneijder as well! I only wish we had that kind of cash!

[ofey]

So tell me forum, where did we find this cash??? Aren't we like 18million Euros in debt? Have we found a middle Eastern Sheikh as an angel?

I don't care what anyone else says. If we sign 3 players, I rather NOT sign them and keep Luis.
If Luis leaves, I don't think these 3 will be a replacement.

It'd be good if we could keep Miralem as well. I think he needs a string of matches and he'll be in form.

Miralem, Mounir and Luis up front is a very scary prospect for any eredivisie defence.

Mido, Lindgren, Enoh, Lodeiro and Blind.

[Think14]

Ofey-
we didn't get the money anywhere. The board are probably trying to please Jol by signing some new players, and counting on the sales of at least van der wiel, and possibly suarez and steks to make up the difference later. Plus Mido was free anyhow, and de Ridder has to be incredibly cheap, you would think. He is a reserve at wigan.

Ofey - I think we had a loss of 21 million last year. We don't have a debt of 21 million (at least not yet). We dropped about 6 million in salary in the past couple months and will probably drop around 6 milllion next year.


EDIT - In news just released, Barcelona had a loss of 77 million Euros last year and have a total debt around 442-542 million Euros.

[AsgAarD_xxx]

Media say that Ajax have an alternative when El Hamdaoui will resign from moving to Amsterdam. AFCA may offer a contract to Agim Ibraimi, a striker from Olimpia Ljubljana.

[Amol]

He(Ibraimi) is about to sign a contract with Heerenveen tomorrow.

We actually have a 24 million Euro Debt. And even if you don't compare it with Barca's, it is extremely manageable. All we need is to get into the Champions League and we will be fine I think. That said, we need to go full out and not worry about cup-tying players for others.

[Michael_B]

We don't have debt.
