Ajax the team to watch

The world of football has been silent for weeks now after the game was brought to a halt by the outbreak of global pandemic Covid 19. Football in Netherlands has been as well been hit and all its leagues stopped. And after the government directive to ban all major activities until September 1 the Eredevisie clubs are ready to agree on a possibility of ending the league soon. This may be a major blow to teams but a relief to some players who had intended to move in the summer,but have the chance to move now.

Having been linked with Chelsea before Hakimi Ziyech agreed to join them by June and now may have a chance to do so before time seen that no matches to be played when the league is cancelled. Though the deal may still no complicated by the fact that the clear date of the summer window is not yet decided. Eredevisie has been a feeder league to other major leagues. And this seasons the same is expected as football giants are keeping an eye on the league best prospects .

Having signed for Chelsea earlier in January Ziyech will have a chance to move to his team but not in the way he would have liked to. He expected to receive a better farewell from his fans and teammates but with the current situation that is not expected to happen. There are other players in the league who would likely move in the summer though it is not yet confirmed. Van Beek is another player whose future with Ajax is in balance, having stayed put last summer despite numerous suitors around him this season may be different.

He is currently on the radar of Spanish giants Real Madrid who are in the market for a creative midfielder and Van Beek fits perfectly. Its just a matter of time before we see him signing for a bigger club on his way to stardom. Ajax goalkeeper Onana is another player who is not short of suitors all over Europe. The former Barcelona prospect has been a revelation in the league and Chelsea have been linked with his signature the goalkeeper who is fast with his feet will be the center of the bidding war when the transfer reopens. Fayernood prodigy Orkun Kokcu is another on the radar he may not be known at the start of the season. But has taken the league by storm and and being managed by the Raiola he is likely to find a big club waiting.

Ajax may be ready to loose Onana and Ziyech but not their highly rated fullback Nicolas Tagliafico who is on Barcelona radar to replace their underperforming back line. The last whose future is up in the air is Mallen,the former Arsenal player. Having not starred at his time at Emirates he may have reshaped his career and on the way to greatness and he will be on the radar if different teams. But this may mark the worst ending any player could have desired.

Despite loosing key players in recent seasons including De ligt. They have shown they are capable of replacing them perfectly and continue dominating the teams as they are used to. Ajax have been displaying they are capable of suffocating even the best teams. They have a tendency of building their tempo from back and attack swiftly hence becoming a problem to any opposition they face. Whoever they face next they should expect a stronger Ajax no matter whether they will have sold their best players.
