Ajax director comments irritation after Antony’s departure
In an interview with “De Telegraaf”, the leader Gerry Hamstra said he understands the technician’s irritation Alfred Schreuder with the departure of one of its main players. Antony was bought for 100 million euros, in a negotiation concluded in the last days of the transfer window. The signing agreed in the final stretch of the transfer period and the behavior of the English club was not well accepted behind the scenes at Ajax. The striker made his debut last Sunday and scored the first goal in a 3-1 victory over Arsenal.
“I understand that Schreuder is very angry. I used to coach, so I know how much it bothers you when your best player leaves at the last minute. We didn’t want that, we wanted to keep Antony.”said Hamstra during the interview and even opened the game about the club’s recovery after the departure of several players.
“Manchester United’s timing was very bad. The last few days have become more hectic after Ajax has already made a major rebuild of the squad after the departure of many level players. It was very difficult to leave our coach with such a gap. We all thought we lost starting players, we had a summer with different expectations.”said.
