Andy van der Meijde advises Ajax to look at Metinho. The 21-year-old midfielder is on loan from Troyes this season with Sparta Rotterdam and impressed against PSV (4-2 loss). “A fantastic game,” said Van der Meijde Veronica outside about the Congolese-Brazilian midfielder.
“He is athletic, strong and has the ability to score,” said Van der Meijde. “Ajax could use that right now. After 61 official games at the highest level, Metinho has 8 goals and 5 assists. He played 24 games for Sparta this season. Last year he played on loan for Lommel SK.
“Ajax doesn’t have much money to take players abroad, I think,” says Van der Meijde. Presenter Wilfred Genee says Troyes is part of the City Football Group. As so the chance seems small that a great talent like Metinho, who could be a suitable player for Manchester City’s prime minister, will be sold at this stage.
Perez in This Was the Weekend
A day earlier, Kenneth Perez spoke This was the weekend Op ESPN he also praised Metinho. “He was playing football well,” said the Dane. “Maybe he got a little more space than he expected against PSV,” Perez said, referring to the Eindhoven side’s slightly underperforming performance in their championship game.
Perez saw Metinho excel both in possession and in winning it. “He was always very useful and quick on the ball. He finished that goal well in the eighth minute too. I think he’s an enjoyable player to watch.”
