Arnaut Danjuma Groeneveld was linked to Ajax during the winter break of last season. At the time, however, the wing attacker did not feel like exchanging Bournemouth for the champion of the Netherlands. Six months later, a possible switch to Ajax is again discussed. The wing attacker does not expect to sign a contract in the Johan Cruijff ArenA in the short term either.
“Steven Berghuis is going to Ajax, wouldn’t you have wanted that?”, Danjuma is asked on Thursday morning in the European Championship show of Football International. The winger immediately laughs, after which a serious answer follows. “I have been interested in Ajax for a while, and it has also appeared in the news for a while. Wouldn’t I have liked that? Of course I am always charmed by the interest of Ajax, it is a great institution and a beautiful club. to be honest, I don’t think I will make a transfer to Ajax in this transfer window,” said the realistic Danjuma.

The Bournemouth attacker was mentioned at the beginning of June by clubs from the top European competitions.
According to the Bournemouth attacker, it is correct that Ajax made contact with its agent on an informal basis in January. “Yes, that is true. Ajax has always informed since my time at NEC. Then I also had the option to go to Ajax. At Club Brugge they also informed something here and there, and at Bournemouth too. But I did. don’t think I will go to Ajax.” Danjuma then commented on the asking price that Bournemouth currently uses. “I can imagine that the club wants the investment (16.5 million euros, ed.), so what will it be. I would not know it myself. But if you think about it logically, they have paid sixteen million euros I think and the salary you earn on top of that.”
football zone announced earlier this month that there is concrete interest in Danjuma from Leicester City, VfL Wolfsburg and Olympique Lyon. However, it has not yet led to a transfer to any of these clubs. “I am very ambitious and I want to achieve as much as possible in my career. The Championship is a good platform for you to assert yourself and I am having a good season. I also know that there will be interest and certain clubs will come forward. I am linked. Of course I hope to play in one of the top five leagues in the world next season,” Danjuma said in an extensive interview with football zone.
