The Dutch football club "Ajax" has rejected the first official offer for defender Yorrell Xato from the English team "Chelsea". This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to ESPN, "Ajax" respects Xato's desire to leave the team, but they want the 19-year-old player to stay. The club's management has sent a response offer to "Chelsea", but the details are not yet known.
Earlier, it was reported that Xato's current contract is valid until 2028, and he has also reached an agreement on personal contract terms. The player is currently participating in a tournament in Italy with the team, but did not take the field in the semi-final match.
According to the coach, this decision was made not due to transfer negotiations, but because of the player's physical condition. Xato and another player were given a rest.
