Internazionale
In Milan, the former Ajax player has settled with his girlfriend. "It was unexpected, but we were enthusiastic from the start", Klaassen says about his transfer to Internazionale. "It's a gorgeous city and a great club in a good league. I was open to an adventure in a different country, but Ajax is Ajax."
With Klaassen and his fiance, Laura, we went into town and discussed how the transfer came to be. "It started last season when I felt Ajax was heading in a different direction. This is when I started thinking about a possible transfer. There were enough other clubs not good enough to leave Ajax for, but I could not pass on Inter."
Club love
Klaassen looks back at his second period at Ajax with a positive feeling. "The last year was not that good, but I think I can be happy with two championships and one Dutch Cup in three seasons. The feeling is mostly positive. In the end, Ajax will always be my club, and I will return to it, in whatever role that might be", the true Ajacied decides.
