Concerns Surround Oleksandr Zinchenko’s Potential Move to Ajax

Kenneth Perez is somewhat astonished by the potential transfer of Oleksandr Zinchenko to the Eredivisie. Ajax is on the verge of acquiring him from his current club, Nottingham Forest, but the ESPN analyst has reservations about this move.

“Does Ajax not currently require a player who can offer guidance and authority?” Perez questioned during his appearance on “Dit was het Weekend.” “I am not well-acquainted with him, but being a good footballer does not necessarily mean you are the right person to maintain the balance within a team. For example, Jordan Henderson may not be the most talented player, but he consistently contributes to team dynamics.”

Perez also underscores that investing heavily in players does not guarantee success, citing Oscar Gloukh as an example. “Just because you’ve paid fifteen million does not mean you’ve acquired a top-notch player. If scouting and evaluation are lacking… remember, Ajax has also spent ten million on Moro. This reflects a broader issue at Ajax, where, over the past three years, they have invested excessively in players who do not significantly enhance the squad compared to what they already possess.”
