He can train in 2 weeks. Doesn't seem much of a barrier to signing him given the low fee Ajax are demanding. If he's asking for reasonable money, he'd be a bargain.
Okay, so why pay him to sit at home for two weeks? Or a month? Or six weeks?
Bloke has been caught as a drug cheat, can't play, hasn't played and has one year left on his contract. It's pretty obvious why nobody is signing him and any wage demands will be miles down the list.
Aye, perhaps they're the main reasons. It just seems those problems also present an opportunity to sign a really good keeper for reasonable money that a lot of clubs would jump on. But, also, maybe he has in mind a pre-contract in January, or even waiting for a free next summer, given he can't play until November and will be at the Africa Cup of Nations in February anwyay. Who knows?
One thing we do know - we're not signing him.
