Former Ajax manager, Aad de Mos, has expressed displeasure towards the acquisition by his former club this summer.
Daily Vendor writes that after the departure of important players like Lisandro Martinez, Sebastien Haller and others, the Dutch side brought in as many as 10 players.
Some of them include Nigeria’s Calvin Bassey who joined the Dutch club from Rangers for €23m, Tottenham Hotspur’s winger, Steven Bergwijn and Sevilla striker, Lucas Ocampos who moved to the Netherlands on a loan deal.
Speaking in an interview De Mos stated that Bassey, in particular, has not yet fulfilled his expectations and achieved the amount Ajax had to pay for him.
He said: “Bassey is not an Ajax player for me. And I can’t imagine anyway why you would bring a player from the Scottish league to Ajax
“He has no speed of action, no insight. And before he has turned, a day has passed. There is no feeling in him.”
He was also of the view that the board of directors of his former club have saddled Ajax manager, Alfred Schreuder, with an incoherent team.
He concluded: “Jorge Sánchez is also limited. It just isn’t right in all lines.
“I see at Ajax that it is not aligned and that a lot of players walk out of their position. If a central defender often has to go to the side, that means that it is not good in the organization.
“That is very bad for the team. You lack structure at Ajax and if that is missing, you can lose to everyone.
“Every opponent with variation can score against Ajax in this way. Everyone has been able to see it against the big teams. But also just against FC Volendam.”
