Branco van den Boomen Thrives at Angers SCO After Ajax Stint

Ajax has loaned Branco van den Boomen to Angers SCO since January. The midfielder has made an excellent start in France, as noted by his coach, Alexandre Dujeux.

Van den Boomen has made a significant impression with his ‘rare’ qualities, earning a spot in L’Équipe’s Team of the Week this week and receiving a score of 7. His precise passing was particularly notable during Angers’ 1-0 victory over FC Metz. Dujeux commented, “He is a very interesting player,” as reported by Voetbal International.

The resurgence of Van den Boomen has surprised many, including journalist Suleyman Öztürk from VI, who noted the player’s previous struggles at Ajax. “He has truly become the commanding presence at Angers, having been completely overlooked at Ajax; I didn’t even know he still existed. He makes a move to Ligue 1, where he has previously excelled, and within a week, he finds himself in the Team of the Week.”
