Marco van Basten believes Ajax striker Brian Brobbey, a former Manchester United transfer target, is 'technically substandard'.
Marco van Basten says Ajax striker Brian Brobbey ‘is not a finisher’ Marco van Basten believes Ajax striker Brian Brobbey is ‘technically substandard’ and feels Wout Weghorst offers more for the Netherlands national team. Brobbey came through Ajax’s academy before he joined RB Leipzig on a free transfer in 2021. The striker spent just one year in Germany before returning to Ajax on loan before the Dutch club made the deal permanent for an initial €16.3 million fee.
Those are things you need to have as a striker but that is hard to find with him.’ Van Basten blames Ajax for what he believes is a lack of development in Brobbey and says Weghorst, who joined Ajax from Burnley in the summer, is setting an example for his teammate. ‘The entire training is accountable. What on earth have you done with such a boy all these years?’ Van Basten said. ‘He is naturally strong, good enough, explosive, but technically substandard.
