Ajax Seeks to Sweeten Raúl Moro Deal with Owen Wijndal
Ajax is actively pursuing the transfer of Raúl Moro from Real Valladolid, but negotiations have hit a snag over the transfer fee. The Amsterdam club has reportedly offered €7 million for the talented left winger, but Valladolid is holding out for a sum closer to €10 million. In an attempt to bridge the gap, Ajax has proposed including left-back Owen Wijndal in the deal. [[1]]
wijndals Future Uncertain
Wijndal, who is surplus to requirements under Ajax manager Francesco Farioli, has already been linked with a move to Leganés. though, the defender reportedly rejected the possibility, citing a desire to avoid playing in Spain’s second division. While Ajax technical director Alex Kroes has reportedly offered Wijndal to Valladolid as part of the Moro deal, the likelihood of this happening remains slim. Valladolid’s precarious financial situation, currently sitting at the bottom of La Liga, may make them more receptive to a deal involving Wijndal, but the defender’s reluctance to play in a relegation battle could prove to be a major obstacle.[[3]]
Moro Deal Nears Completion?
Despite the uncertainty surrounding Wijndal’s potential involvement, reports suggest that Ajax has reached a personal agreement with Moro. Dutch outlets de Telegraaf and Voetbal International have indicated that the deal could be finalized in the coming days. The transfer of Moro would be a significant coup for Ajax, adding a promising young attacker to their ranks. [[2]]

Today, we’re joined by Ajax legend Piet Keizer, renowned for his dazzling dribbling skills and contributions to the club’s golden era. Piet, thanks for joining us!
piet: My pleasure. Always happy to talk football, especially when it involves Ajax.
Host: You know, Ajax is keen on bringing in Raúl Moro from Real Valladolid, a talented left winger. Reports say there’s a bit of a snag with the transfer fee, though. What are your thoughts on Ajax’s pursuit and this particular sticking point?
Piet: Raúl Moro is a promising young player. Pace, trickery, good vision – he fits the Ajax DNA.but €10 million is a hefty price tag,especially for a club rebuilding like Valladolid. I understand their stance, but Ajax needs to be smart.
Host: They’re trying to sweeten the deal by including Owen Wijndal, who seems surplus to requirements under Farioli. Do you see that working? From your experience, how do these complicated deals usually pan out?
Piet: Wijndal’s a good lad, solid defender. But he’s made it clear he doesn’t fancy a drop to the Segunda División. Valladolid’s financial situation is tough, they might be tempted, but I doubt Wijndal would budge. These situations are tricky; everyone has their price, but personal desires play a big role too.
Host: Engaging. So, you think Ajax might have to cough up the full €10 million?
