Ajax sign Antony Matheus dos Santos

Ajax will pay a transfer sum of € 15,75 million to São Paulo FC; this amount could potentially reach a maximum of € 21,75 million due to variable factors. Antony was born on February 24, 2000, in São Paulo, Brazil.

Marc Overmars, director of football affairs: “We will have to be patient for a few more months before Antony can start here, but with him, we are getting a creative player who can play in every position up front. It’s already been established that some of our players will be leaving this summer. We need to plan for that, so it’s great that we’ve been able to finalize this transfer.”
