Hopefully someone can answer this. I noticed that Ajax also terminated Dusan Tadic's contract and he was generally their best player over the last few years. It seems they had a very poor season by their standards and I'm guessing they are having a change of generation. Who knows, could be some type of gentleman's agreement with players who have been there for a long time. Ajax generally get pretty good money for their young talents, but I'm guessing guys like Tadic/Klaassen wouldn't get them much.Why is Ajax willing to let him go on a free?
You answered it already. Ajax sell players for profit. Tadic and Klaassen have next too none, so they'd prefer to give the precious minutes for developing products.Hopefully someone can answer this.

He doesn't seem anything like Vecino in terms of playing style, in the few matches I've watched him. Vecino can run for two games straight and has a decent ability of getting into the opponent's box but doesn't really score much. At least based on Klaassen's stats, he seems to get double digits goals pretty consistantly. The highest number of goals Vecino has scored in a single competition over a season is 3 goals - I'm actually surprised it's that low.Klaasen is Dutch Vecino
Because he is utter trash. Horrible, horrible signing. Klaassen is done. Here in Holland absolutely nobody understand he is rumoured to a club like Inter.Why is Ajax willing to let him go on a free?
Good vision and passing skills. Nothing like Vecino and Gags indeed.they already made it lololol
He has neither of that!Good vision and passing skills. Nothing like Vecino and Gags indeed.
He has neither of that!
Yeah I have literary seen the guy play over 50 times. I used to be scared for the guy as he always scored against Feyenoord. But even in De Klassieker from last year we let the guy free when he was in possession. As it is almost a guarantee he will lose the ball.Nah man. Better trust a youtube video than someone who has actually watched him.
He isn’t I’m afraid. Klaassen showed nothing in those past 2 years. In fact you can compare the Ajax fans complaining about Klaassen with the Inter fans complaining about Gags.Looks infinitely better than Gags based on that video above.
Well said mate. I've watched just a couple of games of Klaassen, and I have the same opinion. But, when people started praising him here, I thought that I'm wrong.Because he is utter trash. Horrible, horrible signing. Klaassen is done. Here in Holland absolutely nobody understand he is rumoured to a club like Inter.
Klaassen used to be a midfielder who is able to score a goal. He was good without the ball and got himself in scoring position. But if you think Dumfries has a bad technique you are in for a treat with Davy… Also don’t forgrt he failed miserably at Everton, Wolfsburg and the Dutch NT before. He only worked for Ajax in a very specific role. And even there they don’t want him anymore because in possesion he is a dissonant.
Also the only position he can play is the one of Mhiki. That means Frattesi is going to be vice Barella?
I understand the profile. Given the lack of goals at our attack we need someone who can add someone who can score goals from our midfield. Klaasen had those qualities. Om ED/Ajax level, now probably on FC Twente level. He has nothing to do in the Serie A, let alone Inter. I mean I would gladly take Ndombele over Klaassen. And Ndombele would be a very silly signing too….
