'We're not going to break up the complete team' - Van der Sar insists Ajax will hold onto several stars

Edwin van der Sar says that it is inevitable that Ajax will sell several stars this summer, but the club's general director insists that the exodus will not be as bad as many think.

Ajax are set to take on Spurs in the Champions League semi-finals, having already knocked out Real Madrid and Juventus on their way to the competition's penultimate round.

Midfielder Frenkie de Jong is set to join Barcelona this summer, having already finalised a move to Camp Nou, while Matthijs de Ligt is widely expected to follow him out the door with Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Juventus all linked.
