Ajax sign Serbian brothers and give dad a job in package deal


AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - Ajax Amsterdam have signed Serbia international Nemanja Gudelj from fellow Dutch club AZ Alkmaar, while also recruiting his younger brother and giving their dad a coaching job, the club said on Wednesday.

Ajax signed Nemanja on a five-year deal and the 23-year-old midfielder is the club's first major signing in preparation for next year’s Champions League. "The new season starts early for us at the end of July with a match in the preliminary round of the Champions League, so therefore it’s important that we get our lineup in order as quickly as possible,” coach Frank de Boer said on the club’s website (www.ajax.nl).
