Toby Alderweireld- Ajax to Liverpool
Alderweireld has been a highly influential member of Frank De Boer’s Ajax side for a few years now but it appears that the Belgian’s time with the Dutch club is over. Alderweireld only has one year remaining on his current contract with Ajax and it appears that he is unlikely to sign a new deal, meaning the Dutch club need to sell the defender now or risk losing him on a free transfer next summer. Liverpool have been linked with Alderweireld all summer and they could make a move for Belgian in the last days of the transfer window.
Alderweireld has rejected several possible moves this summer, saying that he will move to a new club that he thinks has ambition. Liverpool certainly have that and plenty of history to go with it. Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers is desperately looking for a defender to replace the recently retired Jamie Carragher and there aren’t many better candidates than Alderweireld, who could become one of the best defenders in Europe.
