Ajax Star Boy reaches Milestone just like Suarez, Sneijder


Ajax have a new star who is rubbing shoulders with Luis
Suarez and Wesley Sneijder.

Arkadiusz Milik initially joined Ajax on loan last season
before making his move permanent in a €2.8 million deal
from Bayer Leverkusen in April.

And the 21-year-old Poland international has quickly
become Ajax's star, having scored 11 goals in 21 Eredivisie
games last season, he's followed that up with nine in 19
league appearances so far this term.

Milik's strike in Sunday's 2-2 draw with Roda means that
he's moved to 30 goals and assists combined during his
time at Ajax, and only two players - Klaas-Jan Huntelaar and
Luis Suarez - have reached that milestone quicker.

Suarez spent three and a half seasons at Ajax and finished
his time at the club with 81 goals from 110 appearances.

Sneijder, meanwhile, was developed by Ajax's academy
before making his debut in February 2003.

The 31-year-old midfielder, who is now at Galatasaray,
needed three seasons in order to reach 31 goals and
assists.
