Liverpool team reporter Steele reported that Liverpool midfielder McConnell went to Ajax for a medical examination tomorrow and is about to join the Eredivisie giant on loan.
Previously, Liverpool goalkeeper Jarosh had loaned Ajax. The Czech goalkeeper participated in all three games of Ajax this season and completed two clean sheets. Former Liverpool assistant coach Heatinga is currently coaching Ajax, and the Eredivisie giants have turned their attention to Liverpool midfielder McConnell. In the next 24 hours, the young player will officially complete the transfer procedures to the Netherlands.
In fact, the Championship teams Ipswich and West Bromwich have been competing for the 20-year-old midfielder, and Liverpool coach Slott has a very high opinion of him. Hull and the Austrian Graz Storm also expressed interest. Ipswich was in the lead until Sunday night before Ajax got in touch with Liverpool and McConnell. By Monday afternoon, the deal was basically finalized. It is reported that McConnell will undergo a physical examination tomorrow, and the Newcastle-born player will complete the transfer before this weekend.
McConnell is confident of getting a stable playing time at Ajax, and Heatinga, a coach McConnell has been familiar with when he was training in the first team last year, will become a trusted guide for his first loan career. Liverpool has high expectations for McConnell.
