As VI recently reportedAjax wants to strengthen itself on loan in January with a number 6 and a wing defender. The club has several options in mind for both positions, including Hartman. Ajax has now contacted Burnley for the left back, he is a serious option for the Amsterdam team, but that does not mean that a deal is close.
Burnley paid around twelve million euros for Hartman last summer, who played everything at the Premier League club in the first months and was important with four assists. However, he has lost his place in recent weeks, Hartman did not play at all in three of the last four league matches. Burnley are not keen to lose him, but are at least willing to talk about a temporary departure.
The move would of course be a spicy one for the defender himself. Hartman went through the entire youth academy of Feyenoord and played 83 matches for the Rotterdam team. At the same time, he is desperately looking for playing time to stay in the picture for the World Cup. The fact that Ajax and Burnley are now in discussions indicates that the move for Hartman is not unthinkable. The ball is now mainly in his court, Hartman will weigh whether this is the right step for him.
