Ajax goalkeeper André Onana confirmed he is ready to leave this summer, claiming he is ready ‘to take a step’.
The 24-year-old arrived from Barcelona in 2015 for a nominal fee but has now become one of the best goalkeepers in the world.
The Yashin Trophy nominee has been linked with a Barcelona return, in addition to a Premier League move to Chelsea or Tottenham.
With just two years left on his contract, Onana feels that it’s the right time to move on.
“Don’t get me wrong, I am very happy with Ajax and I am very grateful to the club,” he told AD on Tuesday.
“It was five great years here, but now my time has come to take a step. We made that appointment last year.
“I don’t yet know what will happen, but my ambitions and agreements are clear.”
During Onana’s five years at Ajax, he made 178 appearances, allowing just 158 goals and earning a whopping 74 clean sheets.
