Sneijder keen on Valencia

Ajax midfielder Wesley Sneijder is angling for a move to Valencia in the summer transfer window.

The 22-year-old, who has amassed 33 caps for the Dutch national side, was recently voted his club's player of the season, though has his sights set on a move to Los Che.

"I know a lot about Valencia," he told Valencia-based Cadena SER. "It's a great club. I have read and listened to everything that has been said about their interest in me. I am very proud of it. It would be a dream to play in Valencia."

The player was coy when asked whether Valencia sporting director Amedeo Carboni had already travelled to Amsterdam to negotiate the transfer, commenting: "Maybe, maybe, but I can't say anything more.

"The Spanish league is possibly the most pretigious in the world, and I would be very happy to play there. I could play there next year or in two years. Everybody knows what my situation is at Ajax and I can't say much with on that at the moment."

Der erste Anlauf ist schon einmal gescheitert:

Valencia told to up Sneijder ante

Eredivisie side Ajax have told Valencia that the Spaniard's valuation of Dutch midfielder Wesley Sneijder is very much different from their own.

The Mestalla outfit are tracking the Holland international with a view to a summer swoop and Valencia sporting director Amedio Carboni is thought to have tabled an offer of &euro8 million, with the possibility of an extra &euro4 million depending of the player's performance.

But Ajax made it clear in an official statement at the weekend that a deal is a long way off, saying: "the offer from Valencia is very far from our valuation of Sneijder".

According to Marca, Sneijder's agent, former player Soren Lerby, believes an offer of &euro12 million should be enough to tempt Ajax to part with the 22-year-old, who has been widely regarded as the player of the season in Holland this year.

Bayern Munich are also believed to be interested in Sneijder, and the Bavarian giants are believed to be willing to part with &euro14 million to secure his services. Sneijder himself is believed to prefer a move to Spain, but he could yet end up in Germany as Ajax do not want to lose money purely on the basis of the player's preferences.

Wie schon im Transfernews-Thread gepostet, wird Iván de la Peña als mögliche Alternative gehandelt. Carboni will aber demnächst noch einmal bei Ajax vorstellig werden und ein verbessertes Angebot deponieren.

Kurzgefasst, wird davon abhängen, ob Ajax in die CL kommt oder nicht, denn eines ist klar, sie müssen im Rückspiel gegen Heerenveen noch einen ordentlichen Gang zulegen sonst wird das nichts, dass sie Snijder halten können, einen absoluten Leistungsträger.
