Transfer Updates
By: Mike | June 13th, 2008
I wonder if there is any other leauge that consistenting has the volume of rumours regarding departing players that the Eredivisie has. The nature and status of the league basically assures us that all top and emerging talent will be the subject of constant exit rumours.
Instead of being part of the problem I’ve decided to perpetuate those rumours, so here we go.
FC Twente have already been busy following their successful Champions League surge. That doesn’t mean they’ll be keeping their manager or their influential players. In fact both former manager Rutten and newly minted Oranje Engelaar are headed to Shalke. Moving in to FC Twente is midfielder Chiek Tiote from Anderlecht in Belgium. Oh and in case you’ve missed it Steve Mclaren has been rumoured to be taking over at Twente.
Also reportedly making the move to Shalke is PSV’s Jefferson Farfan. In a twist Oranje striker Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink will NOT request a transfer from Celtic. It seems unusual for a player to stick with a club despite offers from perhaps more attractive clubs.
Ajax news now: After all the garbage, the lies, the spies and James Bond-esque impersonations of agents golden boy Klaas Jan Huntelaar has admitted that moving to Real Madrid wouldn’t be so bad after all. You have to feel for Ajax blogger Matt, this is going to be one of those transfer sagas that drags on and on, in the end leaving supporters bitter and exhausted. Imagine a Madrid side consisting of van Nistelrooy and Huntelaar supported by Drenthe, Sneijder and Robben. That would never happen but what is bad news for the Amsterdammers could be good for the Oranje. Lastly Demy de Zeeuw would be pleased to join Ajax according to his dad. I wonder if Ajax would be interested if de Zeeuw keeps warming the bench.
That’s all for now!

Can Demy defend? On his best day? If so, I’ll take him. The price should be right. Unless that was someone impersonating his father.

That’s a good point. I wonder if reporters are asking for ID when taking quotes now.
