The bullet is through the church: Ajax lets David Neres leave for Shakhtar Donetsk | Foreign football”>David Neres exchanges Ajax for Shakhtar Donetsk. The team from Amsterdam will receive a fixed amount of twelve million euros for the attacker. Due to bonuses, the amount can rise to sixteen million euros.
Ajax will receive approximately the same amount as what it paid to São Paulo in 2017. The club could have sold the Brazilian in January 2019 for a mega amount of 43 million euros to the Chinese Guangzhou Evergrande, but refused and indirectly received a semi-final Champions League in return.
Neres played 180 matches for Ajax, in which he was good for 47 goals and 41 assists. At Shakhtar Donetsk, who became champion of Ukraine thirteen times, he will try to get his career started. The last two years, the often injured Brazilian had to make do with a marginal role.
Neres was taken over from Brazilian São Paulo in January 2017 for a transfer fee of 12 million euros, making him one of the most expensive transfers from Ajax. Tottenham Hotspur attacker Steven Bergwijn must now succeed Neres.
Made in Cotia, became the #SkillerOfAMS.
Thank you David! ????????♥️
