Ajax has been actively searching for a new right-sided centre-back since the departures of Ko Itakura, Josip Sutalo, and Ahmetcan Kaplan. This has left the position thin, and the club believes that the arrival of an experienced right-sided centre-back is a priority. The club's openness to Baas' departure is also due to their high hopes for Janse, who is seen as the ideal successor to Blind.
Ajax has already rejected several offers for Anton Gaaei, deeming them too low. The club is holding out for a better deal. Lucas Rosa has also attracted attention from other clubs, but the details of these offers are unclear.
Owen Wijndal's situation is more complicated. The 26-year-old has a love-hate relationship with Ajax, and his salary is still a burden on the club's budget. Ajax had hoped to sell him earlier this summer, but he was valued at around €1.5 million.
