Uncertainty Surrounds Carlos Vicente’s Transfer to Ajax

omidbasir- Within Ajax, opinions were divided regarding the potential signing of right winger Carlos Vicente from Deportivo Alavès. Ultimately, Vicente opted for a move to Birmingham City, which competes in the English Championship.

Lentin Goodijk from Voetbal International shared insights on the situation, stating, “This is quite a unique circumstance. There was noticeable division within Ajax regarding his arrival. They initially approached the transfer window with the intention of only acquiring players on loan, as Cruijff would not begin until after this window. However, it started to appear as though they intended to sign him for a considerable sum of millions of euros.”

Additionally, Goodijk addressed the ongoing question of whether Ajax would secure a new ‘number 6’ player. He remarked, “I have reached the conclusion that a miracle is necessary against Olympiakos, and with the team already out of the cup, it means there are still fourteen matches left in the Eredivisie. Should they pay a loan fee and a substantial salary for a number six who may leave after six months, or should they consider Regeer, who is showing promising development?”
