| Jari
Litmanen back at Ajax! |
30 Aug 2002
|
|
Jari Litmanen is returning to Ajax after
3 unhappy years without a regular teamplace at either Barcelona or
Liverpool! He's been clearly unhappy at Liverpool since his move there from
Barça, making few appearances (to the disappointment of many Liverpool
fans) and was unlikely to see much action in the future. Manager Gerard
Houllier gave him permission to start looking for a new club but a brief
flirtation with the Amsterdammers some weeks ago ended when Ajax said they
couldn't afford his wage demands and a possible move to Turkish side
Galatasaray was turned down by Litmanen. The 31 year-old will sign an
initial deal for 4 months with the possibility of staying on for a further
year-and-a-half if both parties are happy with the situation in January
2003. There are still a few formalities to be ironed today before the deal
is official and technical director Leo Beenhakker will be meeting with
Liverpool representatives to sort them out. Ajax's goal is to have Litmanen
registered with UEFA before 16:00n hours today in order to make him eligible
for Champiosn League football. Otherwise, according to Beenhakker, the aim
of the transfer will have missed its mark!
