🇭🇷➡️🇳🇱 ŠUTALO MOVING TO AJAX!
Dinamo Zagreb/Croatia International, Josip Šutalo, is joining Dutch side Ajax on a 5-year/€21 million transfer.
The Croatian national team now has defenders at Man City (Gvardiol), (Bayern/Bayer Leverkusen) Stanišić, Union Berlin (Juranović), Sassuolo (Erlić) and now Šutalo in the Netherlands.
In my opinion, this is an absolutely fantastic move for Šutalo. He will be joining fellow Croatian center-back, Jakob Medić, who just moved over from St. Pauli this summer, on the Ajax backline. Šutalo is only 23 years old and will be playing in a solid Dutch league where expectations are not as high as the Premiership, Bundesliga, or Serie A. Ajax are also in the last qualifying phase of Europa League and are expected to make the group stage after being paired with Bulgarian side, Ludogorets.
The future of the Croatian defense is in good hands!
Dinamo 4 points, Hajduk 12 points, 4-0, this does not help matters for Dinamo. Maybe split’s year.
Germany ‘24 is within our grasp.
We will tough to score on.
We need to produce a striker and attack winger.
Perišić needs to go back to left wing or striker or second striker.
He is money in the final third.
His days of tracking back are over.
Give him the Messi/Ronaldo treatment.
Dalic needs to figure it out.
No more excuses.
Napoli wouldn’t have been a bad move either.
I think they offered like 20 million.
Yeah, I would prefer a move to Napoli, think he’s good enough and don’t need Ajax as a stepping stone to something bigger. Not sure if the Napoli bid was rejected by Dinamo, or Sutalo really picked Ajax over Napoli. Maybe cos the Dutch guaranteed him a first team place?
