Although negotiations between Ajax and Valencia are still ongoing for the transfer of right-back Gregory Van der Wiel, the player himself is convinced his future lies at the Mestalla. Following the game against Den Haag at the weekend, which Ajax won 4-0, the Dutch international told The Telegraaf: “I could be signing for Valencia on a five-year contract.”
Ajax director of football Danny Blind also considers talks are on the right track and the two clubs are close to a deal: “We are getting closer all the time, although we have still not reached an agreement;” said the former Holland international.
