Matthijs de Ligt said goodbye to the Ajax-public. He addressed the supporters present and director of player policy Marc Overmars also had something to say. And what exactly does Overmars mean by ‘the tip’ from De Ligt?
De Ligt indicated this week that he would like to come and watch the game against Go Ahead Eagles. And so Ajax saw an opportunity to put him in the spotlight again. “It is wonderful to see you here again. We as Ajax are proud of you,” Overmars told De Ligt before the match against Go Ahead Eagles.

“You are always welcome. I remember well that we were in training camp in 2018 and you said: I need a central defender next to me, he has to come. That turned out to be Daley Blind. As a result, we worked even harder to get Daley on board. That has worked wonderfully.”
“You had such an opinion and an urge to prove that you sometimes came to me with tips. I think we will follow one more tip from you soon, but we’ll keep that between us for a while,” said Overmars.
