Eriksen is still at a top fit, now signed with the German VfL Wolfsburg, where he arrived from Denmark on Wednesday and will continue his career in the Bundesliga. Yes, he is 33 years old, but has proven to be able to participate in the top at Manchester United last season. Eriksen could also have brought more football into the game of Ajax. He still has a great love for the club with which he became champion three times at a very young age.
After major cleaning: trainer John Heitinga and Ajax players now have to deal with criticism
Despite clear signals and contacts, the Amsterdam club did not bite. Eriksen, who also received offers in the English Premier League but who did not caught, has decided to move to Wolfsburg. He will collaborate there with former Go Ahead Eagles trainer Paul Simonis, who started his Bundesliga adventure with a victory and a draw.
Daley Blind
Earlier, Ajax already passed the chance to get Daley Blind (35) back. The son of the departing commissioner Danny Blind has a contract with Girona until the summer of 2026. But there is a clause in it, allowing him to return to Amsterdam for ‘a few tons of euros’ last transfer summer. The club leadership of Ajax, however, preferred the 20-year-old Liverpool Ruurling James McConnell on the number-six position.
