“I am often told that I would play in this Ajax anyway,” Hansen begins the Gelderlander. Currently, Steven Bergwijn, Carlos Forbs, Steven Berghuis and Jaydon Banel mainly cover the wings of the Amsterdam team. “That could be possible, but I am now at NEC. I do not regret not extending my contract with Ajax. It is easy to say afterwards. I was a bit emotional at my farewell, but I really enjoyed it.” sense at NEC.”

Hansen sets the bar high for himself and believes that his two goals and as many assists are not enough for a player of his qualities. “The level at NEC is much higher than at Jong Ajax. But yes, just the name Ajax brings expectations and I have to deal with that.” Last summer, Hansen came over from Ajax on a free transfer. He played a total of 84 matches for Jong Ajax. He also played for the main force for thirteen minutes.
