The Mexican right back Jorge Sánchez is officially an Ajax player. The 24-year-old Sánchez comes over from the Mexican club Club América and signs a contract in Amsterdam for four seasons, until mid-2026.
According to The Telegraph Ajax has paid five million euros plus half a million euros in bonuses for the services of the Mexican. With the arrival of Sánchez, Ajax coach Alfred Schreuder has received his desired right wing defender.
After the transfer-free departure of Noussair Mazraoui to Bayern Munich, Ajax had to look for a replacement in the right-back position. With Sánchez, the team from Amsterdam brings in an experienced competitor for Devyne Rensch. He played 150 games for Club América, scoring twice and providing eight assists. In addition, the 21-time international has already picked up 25 yellow cards, which indicates that Ajax again has a player who possesses the Latin ‘grinta’.
