In the last months has been protagonist in the market of signings, but with his future resolved, Frenkie of Jong follows giving that speak by his football. The midfield player forms part of an Ajax that has turned into one of the big disclosures of the season 2018-19, and that does not renounce to continue giving surprises to his big rivals in Europe.

The one of Arkel has conceded an interview to 'Uefa.com', in which it has valued several subjects of actuality. The youngster has been questioned by the path of his team in the Champions, and has revealed that although they are above his initial aims, do not want to put brake to a flawless series and expect to follow surpassing rounds in his way to the final.

"We happen the three preliminary rounds, that was our aim, afterwards are of what are able in the phase of groups and the most stood out arrived when we defeat to the Real Madrid. Really we are what can do, showing that we are to the same level that the others teams. We expect that also we show him to the Juventus that are so good like them, or even better", has commented.

Speaking of personal questions, the Dutch has refused the recent comparisons with one of the greater legends of his country: "The people compares me with him because have a similar form to walk, to walk, to move us. But It is putting a bit out of context. I do not think that they compare me with the well that it was or the well that I can become. Because he is better of what am now or never will be able to be it. Never it wanted to compare me with Cruyff".

This yes, for Of Jong, that is about to to fulfil 22 years, keeps on being key to approach to the philosophy of the teacher, one that keeps so much in his current club as in the selection: "Had a big education in the Willem II, enjoyed playing there. The people there helped me in my development, the same that the people of the Ajax. I think that always you would have to can show your creativity, that is and keeps on being one of the best qualities of the Dutch football. The Ajax is synonymous of good football, of construction from the defence to the goal, of creativity, of atrevimiento".

Of Jong defines like an apt player for the Ajax... And for the Barça

Further to reveal that it has sacrificed some things in his life by the football but that does not matter him because it allows him enjoy and be happy, Of Jong has recognised that it always saw to Leo Messi like the best footballer of the world, and has defined like an apt player for the Ajax... And also for the FC Barcelona: "Of more youngster I was rather a number '10' that played just behind the forwards, a bit lazy, with a lot of possession. Now I am more a player of containment that does the majority of the work in the phase of creation. It is difficult to define me to me same, but am somebody that always wants to have the balloon and prefers to play with the ball hit to the foot".
