FC Midtjylland has been in contact with Kasper Dolberg, but Ajax’s manager gave a cryptic response about the Danish striker on Thursday. Dolberg started in Ajax’s 4-1 win over Vojvodina in the Conference League qualifiers, and manager Michel stated that he expects the best from him.
What did the Ajax manager say?
Ajax manager Michel told Ziggo Sport that Dolberg is one of their players and that he trusts him. – Dolberg is one of our players. I take it one day at a time. I focus on today and winning. I trust the players I have available, he said.
What does this mean for FC Midtjylland?
FC Midtjylland’s sporting director Kristian Bach Bak previously confirmed that the club had been in contact with Dolberg. But with Ajax’s statement, it seems the Dutch club wants to keep him. FC Midtjylland finished last season in second place in the Superliga with 60 points, seven points behind Aarhus.
What comes next?
Dolberg played 72 minutes in the win over Vojvodina, and it seems Ajax will keep him. FC Midtjylland will now have to look elsewhere to strengthen their attack. Their next match is against Lyngby on August 16.
