Tottenham Hotspur reportedly want Justin Kluivert in January, and Manchester United have been linked with the Ajax winger in the summer transfer window.
Kluivert’s current contract with Ajax runs out in the summer of 2019, according to Transfermarkt.co.uk, and the 19-year-old winger has stated that he will not sign a new deal.
According to The Sun, Manchester United want to sign the Netherlands international winger in the summer transfer window.
The Sun quotes Kluivert as saying: “I’m not renewing my contract at Ajax. Too much has happened.
The decreasing morale, lack of confidence, trying to sell me to Tottenham without me knowing. I heard about that at the last minute. That says nothing about Ajax, but about the people in the club.”
January link
According to The Sun, Ajax offered Kluivert to Tottenham for £20 million in the January transfer window, but the young winger did not feel ready to make the move.
It was a wise decision from the youngster, who is the son of Barcelona and Netherlands legend Patrick Kluivert, as he is only 19 years of age.
Manchester United interest
Kluivert’s comments about not signing a new deal with Ajax could allow Manchester United to make a move for him this summer.
After all, Ajax would not be willing to lose the winger on a free transfer next summer, meaning that the Dutch giants may be forced to sell him in the coming weeks.
Kluivert has scored 10 goals and provided five assist in 27 Eredivisie starts for Ajax this season, according to WhoScored.
