Boulahrouz stays open for Ajax

Finally news that hits my G-spot! Dutch central defender, who also can play as right-wing back gave an interview to magazine Helden. He revealed that he would like to play for Ajax.

After the transfer from Thomas Vermaelen to Arsenal was made, coach Martin Jol wanted a new central defender. The current defence wasn't good enough, players like Oleguer and Rob Wielaert where no positive reinvorcements.

The relationship was soon established with Khalid Boulahrouz. Martin Jol tributed Boulahrouz in his progression at RKC Waalwijk. Boulahrouz soon became a powerfull defender that made an transfer to HSV Hamburg (Bundesliga, Germany). He also became a Dutch International player.

I also hoped for a positive ending, but the transfer never made trough. This season he still playes for VfB Stuttgart (Bundesliga, Germany). But this news, taste for more. I still hope that he will make a transfer this summer. He gives Ajax some more options in the defence, now Oleguer and Wielaert are being passed by Jol. Only Toby Alderweireld and Jan Vertonghen are the only defenders who can reach to a good level. But if one is injured, then the defence will be very weak.

But what if Boulahrouz comes to Amsterdam? Does this effect the team? I think so, because the current duo Vertonghen and Alderweireld are playing well together. Ajax has a few goals against. Once Boulahrouz arrives, he needs time to get used to the players, system and most important: cooperation with Alderweireld or Vertonghen. One of the players will be the victim. Vertonghen can play as defensive midfielder, but I think he better develop in the defence. Alderweireld is a big talent and he playes very good and is one of the revelations in the "Eredivisie".

However, a Dutch international in the team is always positive. His status as a kannibal will be a relief for the team. A worthy follower of Jaap Stam. Besides, Ajax will make a good impression to the fans, to build on a strong qualitative team. Only hope that Suarez will stay another year, so he can play with Ajax in the Champions League. Hopefully with Khalid Boulahrouz.
