Southampton star Kamaldeen Sulemana was hopeful about completing a loan switch to Ajax but the deal fell through in the last hours of the Dutch transfer window. Manager Francesco Farioli had some things to say about the disappointment.
Ajax believed they submitted the transfer documents seconds before the deadline, but did not sign the prospective young star.
Farioli spoke on Sulemana’s move after it came out that he is not going to get much playtime under Saints boss Russell Martin.
While speaking to Ajax’s media channel, Farioli said they just have to move on from the transfer debacle.
“I would have loved to switch off my phone before the deadline.
“I tried but unfortunately I received some calls which (meant I couldn’t). We knew there was a reality we are facing with the finances of the club.
“We lost two players and had the situation with the player coming in (Kamaldeen). It was a bit chaotic and it generated a bit of frustration for all the people involved.
“This is clear. We are now at a point in the road where we can cry about what happened or we can look for a solution.”
