Ajax seems to want to provide some movement in the final week of the transfer period. The Amsterdammers are now emphatically associated with a return of Davy Klaassen and Sean Klaiber is also reportedly in the picture in the Johan Cruijff ArenA. Ajax will say goodbye to Sergiño Dest in the short term and is therefore in the market for a new right back.

However, the possible arrival of Klaiber is received with the necessary skepticism by the fans of the club and Ajax watcher Freek Jansen can imagine that there are doubts: “On the other hand, Dest and Joël Veltman have left, two players who can act as right wing defenders. play ”, explains the journalist Football International out for the camera from FOX Sports.

Klaiber, when he makes the switch to Ajax, normally becomes the back-up of Noussair Mazraoui: “Mazraoui has started well, but it remains to be seen how he physically performs this season. You are going to play a lot of matches with the Champions League every week. Then I don’t think it’s a superfluous luxury to have a stand-in for Mazraoui. ”

What speaks for the fullback is that he is an old acquaintance of trainer Erik ten Hag: “Klaiber is a player who flourished under Ten Hag at FC Utrecht and really manifested himself as a right wing defender there,” said Jansen. Klaiber can thus follow the same path as Zakaria Labyad, who made the move from FC Utrecht to Ajax two years ago.

“Labyad was taken over for six million euros a few years ago and Klaiber also seems to be heading in that direction, towards five million in any case”, Jansen concludes. By the way, Ajax is not the only candidate for Klaiber: the Italian Parma has now also reported itself in the Dom city and could steal the defender from the nose of the team from Amsterdam.
