Liverpool makes mega €100 million bid for Ajax star – Heitinga threatens to leave!
The football world is once again in turmoil after an explosive development in the transfer market: Liverpool has officially made a bid of a whopping €100 million for one of Ajax’s biggest talents. The player’s name has not yet been publicly confirmed, but sources close to the club suggest it’s the rising star who has been making a difference time and again this season in the Eredivisie and across Europe.

What makes this situation even more tense is the reaction of John Heitinga, a former player and current key figure within Ajax’s sporting staff. In a fierce and unusually emotional internal statement, Heitinga reportedly said:
“If this player is sold before the transfer window closes, I will resign. We’re pursuing a long-term vision, and sacrificing our best players for money is the end of that plan.”
According to sources within the Johan Cruijff ArenA, there’s division within the boardroom. On the one hand, Liverpool’s offer is historic – Ajax has never received such a high fee for a player before. On the other hand, they also realize that losing this player could be catastrophic for their ambitions for the current season, both domestically and in Europe.
The player in question is also reportedly aware of the English offer, but according to insiders, he hasn’t yet spoken out about his desire to leave. His entourage has remained remarkably silent, which only fuels the rumor mill.
Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp reportedly personally pushed for the transfer and sees the Ajax player as the ideal addition to his midfield or attack. “He fits perfectly into our system. Young, technical, fast, tactically mature. He’s ready for the Premier League,” said a source close to the club.
Ajax fans are divided. Some understand that a club like Liverpool is difficult to resist and praise the club’s management for its negotiating position. But many are furious and support Heitinga’s position:
“This isn’t a bargain market. Ajax should finally dare to build instead of constantly tearing things down.”
The coming days promise to be nerve-wracking. Will Ajax succumb to the financial pressure? Will Heitinga make good on his threat? And what will the player himself choose?
One thing is certain: this transfer case is far from over – and could completely change the course of both Ajax and Liverpool’s seasons.
