GdS: A ‘complete’ talent who ‘raised hell’ – Milan’s interest in Ajax midfield concrete | OneFootball

A new name has emerged in AC Milan’s pursuit of midfield talent in Silvano Vos of Ajax, and a report has suggested that he could arrive before the window closes.

After the report from De Telegraaf yesterday, La Gazzetta dello Sport also confirm this morning that Milan are keen on signing Vos from Ajax, who is 19 years of age and could therefore be part of the Under 22 squad list for Serie A without a sale needed before registering him.

He started as a right-back during his time with the Ajax youth academy and then moved to midfield, to exploit his technical and physical skills, with one scout report stating: “He is complete from every point of view.”

The hype surrounding Vos has been circulating since 2016 when he was just 11 years old, because of a ball juggling competition. Before the Ajax-Twente league game, the Amsterdam club decided to hold a contest open to young talents from their youth sector which Vos won with 3,178 consecutive touches.

“I could have gone on,” he said at the time. The Dutchman might be ‘too tough’ for his own good at times though, because during the course of last season he and his father he ‘raised hell’ because the coach wasn’t using him enough.

The decision was thus made to leave Ajax, with the Dutch club wanting to cash in on his transfer immediately for €10m, an amount Milan consider a bit excessive. They will try to close for a bit less, but they are aware of competition from France.
