Erik ten Hag will not quit Ajax this year regardless of the size of the club that comes for him, according to the director of football at the Eredivisie club, Marc Overmars.
Bayern Munich are one of the interested clubs with manager, Hansi Flick placed in interim charge until the end of the campaign.
The German giant have been tipped to go in for Erik next month, but Marc has said he will not be going anywhere anytime soon.
He, however, added that he would eventually have to leave because he is on lists of big European clubs.
His words, “Ten Hag can easily last another season after next summer,”
“I certainly won’t let him go yet, although I know that he is on lists at major European clubs. That door will remain closed for the time being.”
“With Hakim, I regularly think he has reached his ceiling but every season he takes another step,”
“I sometimes tell him he can become Mr. Ajax, so why leave?
“But if we’re being honest, he is 27 years old and at his peak. If he can make the step he has in mind then of course it would be allowed of us.”
“Next summer I expect a lot more interest in our players,”
“It becomes harder to keep our squad intact. Ajax players are loved everywhere.
“Think of Van de Beek and Ziyech. They have been here a long time and have brought Ajax so much beauty.”
