John Heitinga has immediately put an end to his career. The defender joined Ajax not to play and has decided the wet grass to hang on the willows, confirms his agent Rob Jansen at Voetbal International.
Ajax Heitinga took last summer with high expectations of Hertha BSC, where the defender had no basis. In Amsterdam he was the leader of the young selection, but in reality Heitinga did not have time to prove its added value. The former national team did not go beyond four innings raid spread across all competitions.
Earlier, coach Frank de Boer in the media all that he had expected more from Heitinga. The coach was among others shocked by the amount of speed that had handed the thirties. Therefore, he would not have been able to get into the system of Ajax, where defenders with lots of space in the back play, to act.
Heitinga made on August 26, 2001 his debut for Ajax, where he youth went through. In mid-2008, the man-markers moved to Atlético Madrid, he again swapped after a year for Everton. The last seasons at Everton Heitinga was not much more to play, and also a rental period to Fulham was not a great success. After a similarly disappointing adventure at Hertha BSC, has 87 international caps Heitinga from Ajax last summer brought back to Amsterdam.
