Ronald de Boer tips Man City to sign 'really great' Ajax star
19.01.2022 - 03:20 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Ajax legend Ronald de Boer has claimed that Dutch international defender Jurrien Timber is capable of playing for Manchester City.
The 20-year-old centre-back is one of a number of emerging talents at Ajax that have impressed since stepping up from the club’s Under-21 side.
Timber made his debut in March 2020 and in total he’s made 56 appearances for the Dutch giants, and has become an integral part of Erik Ten Hag’s plans.
He has featured in all but one of Ajax’s 19 Eredivisie games this season and played in four of their Champions League group matches, helping the Amsterdam side qualify for the last-16 of the competition.
A number of the continent’s leading clubs are believed to be interested in acquiring his services, and De Boer believes Timber possess the talent to play for Pep Guardiola’s side.
“I think Timber is really great. He plays so well,” Ajax Showtime report him saying on Ziggo Sport’s Rondo.
“He dominates and has peace on the ball. It is unprecedented. But would he, because he is 1.78 metres tall, also be able to play in the Premier League against Lukaku or another top striker?
“Will clubs go for that? It depends what kind of club you go to. I think he can join Manchester City like that. There he plays with a lot of space at his back.”
