Erik Ten Hag is known to be the mastermind that took Ajax to the UEFA Champions League semi-finals. The Dutchman was extremely unfortunate not to make it to the Champions League final despite his side having the advantage after the first leg. During his leadership, his Ajax team won three Eredivisie championships and had a 73.9% victory percentage. 

Where are Erik Ten Hag’s signings for Ajax?

Dusan Tadic

Many, like us, believed that Dusan Tadic's departure from Southampton would likely be the last time we saw the Serb. Everyone was incredibly mistaken, as Tadic flourished at Ajax. For a brief period, Ten Hag used him to serve as a false nine, and my goodness, he was excellent at it. Now that Fenerbahce is in the Turkish Superlig, Dusan is terrorizing the Turkish defense.

Daley Blind

In the initial half of the previous year, Blind spent a six-month period at Bayern Munich, but he hardly made an appearance. He made the decision to move to Girona in La Liga, where he became a seasoned player guiding the young players on the Spanish team, almost certainly guiding them to their first-ever Champions League finish.

Lisandro Magallan

The defender from Argentina played very little at Ajax, spending the majority of his time away on loan in Central and Southern Europe. He presently starts every week with the side at Pumas in Mexico.

Nicolas Tagliafico

After Ten Hag departed Amsterdam, Tagliafico led Argentina to victory in the World Cup. The left-back, who won the top accolade in football, signed with Lyon and is currently dominating the left side in Ligue 1.

Rasmus Kristensen

Kristensen was at Ajax for a brief period of time before moving to Red Bull Salzburg in Turkey. After spending three prosperous seasons with Salzburg, Kristensen moved to Leeds to play in the Premier League, but the Whites ultimately lost the league. He is currently on loan at Roma as Leeds attempts to return to the top division.

Zakaria Labyad

Labyad was Hakim Ziyech's backup winger at all times. Zakaria returned to his former club Utrecht after failing to secure a starting position at Ajax. Now that he and Yunnan Yukan are in China, he is using his skills in the Chinese league.

Bruno Varela

For Ajax, the goalie appeared in three games overall. He is currently playing for the first league football team in Portugal, Vitoria Guimaraes.

Quincy Promes

Promes had a productive stint at Ajax, contributing goals and assists across the board. Since then, he has relocated to Spartak Moscow, although his current location is dependent on the Russian Police after he was discovered importing drugs into the nation without authorization.

Razvan Marin

The young Romanian was signed by ten Hag's Ajax because to his outstanding achievements in Belgium, but he was sent out on loan to Cagliari after just ten league games. He signed a permanent contract to play for the Sardinians in 2021, however he is now in Empoli's second year on a Serie A loan.

Lisandro Martinez

The Butcher of Amsterdam moved to Manchester United with his employer, and ever since then, injuries have followed him. Martinez has been a vital member of the club when he has played, so the Red Devils are going to be trying to keep the Argentinean fit.
