:confused: Brobbey and Ihattaren are currently on loan to them? Both around the same age as Amad too.
Buy option for Ihattaren, very cheap.

Ajax was desperate for Brobbey as they didnt have a second striker and Haller was injured.

With all going on at Ajax, Brobbey was needed as the short term impulse to clinch the title, and I am confident Ajax will buy him back and sell Haller coming season.
 
This loan happened because we will buy him after the loan.
sure, it’s still a loan though. If it means it helps you recover from losing antony for 1 year until you find a replacement i’m sure the club will be happy.

Only a loan because he is/was really out of shape and not sure if it would work out. So great deal to get him on loan first, doesn't cost any money if he fails
 
Yeah he is a complete shithouse of a player. Everything you hate about Neymar, but nowhere near his talent.

He was actually injured and still is since this accident. Still a dickmove. I would hate to play against him.
 
A left footed right winger whos a great young talent who could help replace Antony? i'm sure they'll be happy to take him on.

No chance, Amad is barely getting games for Rangers. To replace Antony, Ajax will want a player who's Champions League ready and will be as instrumental as Antony to help win a title. And why would they loan and develop our players? They've got their own academy players who they promote.

Yes please
 
Ajax are the best team in the Dutch league and play in the CL. They don't have time to develop Amad for us. We should keep him next year or loan him to a smaller club.
 
If he can put in top class performances, then great. I have no interest in this 'clowning about' nonsense.
People told you he was really injured and is not playing football since that match but apparently you just cant understand it. Childish ilusions of moral superiority are not enough to win against City and Liverpool. They are all mercemaries, not hole models. Many of those players that many of you loved because they did not have hese kind of antics, did much worse things out of the pitch.

Look, I struggle to warm to the guy. Much like how I struggle to warm to Neymar. The difference is, I can appreciate that Neymar is a world class player. I doubt this kid has that kind of talent and potential. If he does, then terrific. It will be a lot easier to stomach the other nonsense that he brings.
 
On 30 January it was confirmed that Ajax had loaned him from Juventus for one year with an option to buy set at €2 million.

Erm...it's not quiet a loan if there is an option to buy. By Ajax don't loan players I meant: Ajax don't develop players for other teams.

Brobey is an interesting one. Came through the Ajax youth team, made his debut for the first team then left for one of the RB clubs... only to be loaned back to Ajax. Very weird that one...
 
Not seen a lot of him but his stats are really unimpressive for a team that dominates the league.

Rashford even last year had 11 goals and 9 assists (20 goal involvements in 37 games which is 0.54 pg), this year he is 0.24 in a much poorer team and he looks to have given up and be very poor, Antony has 0.53 last year and 0.52 this year so little improvement, from stats alone he doesn't even match Rashford's 3rd best season and he is in a lower league in a more dominating team.

What am I missing? Even on whoscored he isn't one of their top 4 players by performance rating (incase goals and assists don't tell the story)
Well he doesn’t have good end products yet but he is still very young, so it’s understandable. The thing is, it’s obvious he has very high ceiling as a player, as he ability on the ball is clearly on another level to most. You just have to watch him play to know this.

I've seen bits and can't deny he looks good but so does ASM, Adama, Moura etc I wonder how much end product there is and why they would command such high prices without proving their output

I wouldn’t know. If he has good output maybe he would have priced at even higher fee. At this point it’s more about how much faith we have on his talent. For example, Real invested a lot of money on young and unproven teenager talent Junior Vinicius. Looks like it was great deal now.
 
Have we really linked with Nkunku though? It seems Bayern is more likely to buy him to replace Lewandowski.
The links to the Dutch players are definitely stronger, but I’m sure Ralf can leave us with a parting gift…
