Ajax are famed for unearthing homegrown talents and the latest is firmly in their midst.
Kian Fitz-Jim is enjoying his breakthrough season with the Amsterdam club and opened the scoring in Thursday’s Europa League clash with Beşiktaş.
The midfielder showed real guile to ghost in at the far post and slot home unmarked from a loose ball in the visitors’ penalty area.
He also joined illustrious company in the Johan Cruijff Arena’s recent history by notching only his second goal in European competitions again.
Not bad for a player who, still only 21, spent the first half of last season with Eredivisie relegation candidates Excelsior!
