The FC Barcelona considers to Matthijs of Ligt a strategic signing of face to the sportive future of the club. His level of game and the leadership that shows with hardly 19 years has enamoured to the technical office culé, that knows that the Dutch defence would be had to get dressed of Barcelona from the next summer.
Of the same way that already happened with the traspaso of Frenkie of Jong, the Ajax will not give at all. The club of Ámsterdam saves a big relation with the culés, something that facilitated the signing of the mediocentro and that it can accelerate the one of Of Ligt, but do not sell cheap. Of Jong cost 75 million fixed euros more other 11 in variables and his compatriot will not cost less.
Besides, it is necessary to explain also that the Barça is not only in the interest by Of Ligt. The Juventus of Turín contemplates the signing from the past summer and Paris Saint-Germain has added to the bidding. Besides, both clubs, in addition to the Barça, have positioned publicly in favour of his arrival, what still could hamper more the operation in economic terms.
In case it was little all this, the Executive Director of the Ajax, Edwin Van der Sar, commented in press conference that does not want that it consider to the team of Ámsterdam like a club seller. The economic situation of the 'ajacied' does that the team do not have financial urgencies and, like consequence, that the sale of Of Ligt do not run haste.
"It does not matter the fantastic that they are the offers. Financially, have a very good stability. We want that our budget increase, but no through selling players. I do not want that Ajax was seen like a club seller", commented the ex footballer in press conference. Something that does to presage that fichar to Of Ligt was not easy task.
