Ajax Amsterdam, the Dutch Football League competitor, has informed a number of its players to dispense with their services next season in a strange way.
The Dutch team does not pass its best days, as it lost the domestic league title last season 2024-2025 in the last round, after it was ahead of Feyenoord by 10 points ahead of 5 rounds before the end, and he has not achieved any title since the end of the 2021-2022 season.
In an effort to achieve the maximum possible financial benefit, Alex Kroos, the sports director of Ajax 7 of the team’s players, informed the decision to dispense with them by a message by implementing the famous correspondence “WhatsApp”.

Cross himself informed these players that they would be outside the plans of the Dutch coach John Hittinga next season.
The decision included Chuba Akbum, Carlos Forbes, Burna Sousa, Christian Helinson, Cristian Rasmussen, Gay Gortter and Branco van Den Bumin.
The seven players were prevented from entering the car park and other club facilities after the last training session they fought with the team.
Although the reporting method is “far from idealism”, according to the description of the Spanish newspaper “Sport”, the players and their agents are familiar with the club’s intentions, and this allows them enough time to search for new destinations.

Ajax Amsterdam is still suffering from the consequences of the previous sports administration led by Sven Misselletat, whether on the sporting or economic level.
The Dutch newspaper “Telegraph” indicated that the decision was taken to open a new page in the Hittinga stage, which took over the mission to coach Francesco Variooli, and the first step was to inform the excluded players of dispensing with them.
The move comes contrary to what happened last season, when Variole decided to take an expanded list to the period of preparation for the spherical season 2024-2025.
The Sports Administration for Ajax Amsterdam hopes to obtain good financial returns from selling these players, especially the trio of Akbum, Forsa and Soussa, who have been consumed by the biggest bets of the former sports director Meselletat.
Ajax paid 12.3 million euros to contract with Akbum from the English Middlesbspur, 14 million euros to bring Forbes from Manchester City and 8 million euros to contract with Soussa from German Stuttgart, in the summer of 2023.
But the aforementioned trio did not succeed with the team to be loaned to the last season 2024-2025, before informing them of dispensing them.
