New signing Yves Bissouma is not part of the squad. The Malian joined Ajax in mid-September and could no longer be registered for the League Phase of the Conference League. Simon Adingra will also not travel to Split. The winger made his Ajax debut in Saturday’s home match against NEC, but is not fit for the away match in Croatia.

Goalkeeper Aymean El Hani and Mohamed Abdalla are part of the squad. Abdalla made his Ajax debut in July in the qualifying match against FK Vojvodina. He immediately found the net.

Shortly before the squad departed for Croatia, the players trained at De Toekomst in the morning.
