Ajax chief executive Edwin van der Sar has confirmed that they're willing to sell midfielder Donny van de Beek in the upcoming transfer window.
Manchester United have been linked with a move for the Netherlands international but van der Sar insists he won't leave for a cheap fee:
"Last year, we made verbal agreements with Onana, Tagliafico and van de Beek to stay another season, and then we look to help each other and find the next step in their careers. Nothing has changed.
"There won't be a 50 per cent discount. The clubs can forget about that."
The Dutch side have made nearly 200-million Euro in transfer fees in the past 18 months with the sales of Frenkie de Jong, Matthijs de Ligt and Hakim Ziyech.
"In January last year, people said we were going to lose seven or eight players but we lost only two key members," van der Sar added.
"The big clubs such as Bayern Munich have said the benchmark fee will go down in the next few transfer windows. But it's easier for them to say because they are the buyers.
"Of course, the 150-million to 200-million Euro transfers are gone. But I think there is still a lot of value for players who come from Ajax.
"They're well educated, experienced in winning and playing European football."
