Huntelaar on the move

Ajax striker Klaas Jan Huntelaar says he is ready to leave the club at the end of the season and move to better and bigger things abroad. Huntelaar has been linked with many clubs over the past few seasons including: Man United, Man City, Arsenal, Real Madrid, Juventus, Lyon and Liverpool. These clubs will be on red alert once the season ends, to notch up one of Europe's most gifted strikers.

Some reports have already suggested that Juventus have agreed a deal in principle to sign the Dutch striker but wheter or not he does sign for the club is another question. "I feel ready for a new experience abroad," he told the Dutch press. "At the end of the season, I'll leave." I personally would love to see Huntelaar in the Premier League because I feel he has the attributes to become a Premier League great.

He is a tall and athletic striker that has scored endless amounts of goals with the club from Amsterdam but I feel it is time he tested himself in a higher league (with all due respect to Eredivisie), like Serie A or the Premier League. I would guess he would cost around 20 million euros for any club to acquire his services and I'm sure that will turn out to be great value for money for whoever buys him.
