Asked if Ajax was in the mix, the midfielder told ESPN: “No, because the contact with Girona was very early. Right after the season.
"So that didn’t really play a role. We reached an agreement with Girona quite quickly.”
He added, “I think Ajax is back on the right track now. I’ve seen them play a few times and you can see a good idea.”
