Marc Overmars said that Ajax hoped to reach an agreement with Nicolas Tagliafico, amid the interest reported by Arsenal.
football.londres We understand that a new rear left is really on the agenda of the Gunners this summer. They received a huge boost by announcing that the Argentine international had rejected a contract offer from quarterfinalists in the Champions League.
Tagliafico representative Ricardo Schlieper confirmed that the defender was now ready to move on.
"Ajax made an offer, but it was not accepted because it's the right time to make a jump," he told Muy Independiente Radio. "Let's see what's happening on the market."
However, Overmars – the club's sporting director – warned his former club as well as any other interested party that his plan was to have the left-back follow in the footsteps of Andre Onana by signing a new contract .
"We also want to keep Nico Tagliafico and David Neres here," Overmars told NOC, as in the subway. "If you start reading the news on the sports sites every time, you will continue to give your question and your answer.
"In the end, we bring the answer ourselves, because of course we are working with Nico to keep it here for another year, so let's see it in the next few weeks.
"Losing three or four players is a lot, but you also have to accept it – we do everything in our power to keep the players, but you know you have to rebuild.
"A good example is that of two years ago after Peter Bosz's European success."
Tagliafico has been in shape this season.
He played in the team that brilliantly eliminated Real Madrid, the holders of the Champions League, in the round of sixteenth and should face Juventus in the quarterfinals later this month.
