Totally stocked for Kalajdžić, on the other hand really sad that he was bought for less money than Correa.

Thats great job by ajax, but what do they even do with it. They havent won anything in Europe in almost 30 years and are not really competitive, other than that 2018 run. Id have higher ambitions if i was them.
The only way Ajax can do anything in Europe at all is by selling players. TV money and sponsorship money is negligible in the Netherlands. If you want to win the CL you will have to go with the big money and let Ajax not want that. Ajax is convinced that with good scouting and policy, a good youth academy and a portion of luck, it is also possible. And if it's not possible then don't. Ajax will never become a buying club and that is a good thing. I would rather Ajax play EL with many players from the youth academy than CL with a bunch of players bought together. Some things are more beautiful when they stay as they always were: A beautiful club known for its youth academy. Too big for the Netherlands, too small for the CL.

It is not sustainable for Ajax to pay high salaries and transfer money. They make the most money by reselling players for the right amount. I think they get 10.5 million for TV coverage and they pay rent for the stadium. They need the transfermoney with low costs. No, let Ajax remain the beautiful club it is. Perhaps we won't win anything in Europe then, but so be it.

You have Man City who spend a ton and havent won it yet, Ajax have 4 already and thats more than other clubs that are considered elite right now. At one point they could reach a final again its about timing and luck in the CL. They just have to continue to sell 20-40M players for double or triple, win the league and they are good.

I think in LA liga you have to include hence it being so high. Given a choice I don't think there would be a clause.

Yeah it's in the law. So they put them so high to make them irrelevant in terms of someone trying to trigger them.
