Ajax striker is the center of attention this season. The Amsterdammer recently received a lot of criticism, but he is working hard on his areas for improvement and the results are becoming increasingly visible in the field. Süleyman Öztürk thinks Brobbey has what it takes to become a top player.
Hardly a talk show on Dutch television goes by lately without Brobbey’s development being discussed. It started with Ronald Koeman’s open criticism in the Rondo program on Ziggo Sport. Marco van Basten was also and remains critical of Brobbey’s game. The statements of the former top scorer and also those of Wesley Sneijder – who is very complimentary of the Ajax player – did not go unnoticed by Öztürk.

“Sneijder has shouted things, Van Basten has shouted things. But what matters is: how do you view Brobbey, what do you expect from him and how is the team built around him?” says the journalist Football International. “There are trainers who make Brobbey a top nine and there are trainers who make Brobbey a reserve striker. For the rest, he just has to want to get better. And if he wants that, he will be a top striker,” said Öztürk.
In any case, Brobbey is becoming more important for Ajax every week. Last Thursday he scored twice more when visiting Olympique Marseille and last Sunday he provided the assist for Kristian Hlynsson’s opening goal in the away match against NEC. Jeroen Elshoff is impressed by Brobbey’s form. “What I see of him at the moment… I think that is happening very quickly now, in the steps he is taking. A few weeks ago it was still: is Brobbey good enough?” Elshoff said on Monday in the Football Podcast of the NOS. “There will soon be a period when things slow down. But I now see qualities in Brobbey, such as with that goal (against NEC, ed.), that we don’t see very often.”
