There is a press report that Ajax are looking to bring Rugani from Juventus. He's a right CB which may mean that Sutalo is on his way out. I think that's the only way they have the money to make this happen.
Hope it's only rumors. Selling a 24 y.o. NT starter and buying a 30 y.o. out of favor doesn't seem like an improvement to me. Hope they know what they are doing.
Wow, that was a very short stint: Goalkeeper coach Jelle ten Rouwelaar leaves Ajax for Manchester United after only two weeks After just over two weeks, Ajax has already said goodbye to Jelle ten Rouwelaar. The goalkeeper coach leaves immediately for Erik ten Hag's Manchester United. Ajax will receive a fee of 100,000 euros from the top club in the Premier League for the Frisian, who made the switch from Burnley to Amsterdam after last season.
This must be a prank. Ajax is on the verge of completing a special transfer. The Amsterdam team takes over striker Boubacar Diakité from Badalabougou Black Stars. The Malian club announced this on Facebook.
Ajax 18-year-old Gabriel Misehouy, out of contract on June 30, is joining Girona in La Liga. I don't recognize the name so perhaps was on the Jong Ajax squad. Girona are in the CL so trying to strengthen their squad cheaply.
he was seen as a pretty big talent, especially at one point. Ajax tried to extend him but he wasn’t going for it.
They made a big effort to extend his contract early in the year and his managers/family (could be both) wanted much more money than Ajax would pay. Ajax told him that he could no longer train with the club at that point. He is talented but really a light weight player. We'll see if he makes it or returns to the Eredivisie chastened by his foreign experience.
Ajax look close to signing former player, Bertrand Traore on a free transfer from Villareal. He is still only 28 years old and featured for Peter Bosz during Ajax run to the Europa League final in 2017. He played on the right wing and striker during that season while on loan from Chelsea.
As long as the salary is right and it’s on a free, why not. The help is needed, especially on the right side.
Ajax playing Rangers in a friendly and are up 2-1 at the half. Fitz-Jim with an open net goal as Taylor was taken down in the box and the ball came to the MF. van den Boomen with a nice free kick that probably should have been saved. Rangers goal was also on a free kick after a silly foul by Medic. First half line up: Ramaj; Rensch, Medic, Baas, Wijndal; Henderson, van den Boomen, Taylor; Rassmussen, Akpom, Fitz-Jim Subs on: Banel (45), Gaaei & Berghuis (60); Hato, Janse, Forbs, Tahirovic,Mannswerk & Rijkoff (67) It ends at 2-1 though Ajax had a couple of late chances. Looks like Baas will be used as a utility player. He was decent enough at CB.
Wow, Mikautadze makes a 25 million move to Monaco. Is Ajax going to pull in some of that by way of a sell on clause?
No, they had already sold him back to Metz for €13M (I think that was the amount). They don't get a sell on fee.
Ajax routinely post things on their YouTube channel and if you are interested you can subscribe and you will be notified. AFC Ajax - YouTube The clip from today's match is already up.
Youth keeper Tommy Setford is off to Arsenal for €1M plus bonuses. We was moving up to Jong Ajax this season. His brother, Charley, who split the Jong Ajax duties last season remains with Ajax.
I have to think back, but Ajax never change their home kit much do they?? Here is the 2024/2025 version. I might pick up a shirt https://www.versus.uk.com/articles/adidas-and-ajax-unveil-new-2024-25-home-kit Away
Got my shirt last week. It's the only way I can support the club on this side of the pond. I have every shirt from the 2009 season on!!!
Tristan Goojier, who broke into the first team last season, is loaned out to PEC Zwolle. Looks like van den Boomen will leave for €6M, probably to Lille in France. Bertrand Traore signing is official. Sutalo, Sosa, and Kaplan have all returned to training, Brobbey and Bergwijn are on holliday and won't return until after the first EL qualifier.
The shirts are all boxed up. I do have a hanger to display all my club caps. Everytime I visit a new city abroad I pick up a cap for that city's club team. I even have the New Zealand rugby team cap.
