We can reveal some positive news for Ajax today. Brazilian left back Maxwell and his agent are open for talks regarding the extension of Maxwell's currenct contract, which expires next summer. Ajax are reluctant to let Maxwell go for free at the end of coming season and are desperate to let him renew his current contract.

Up till now Maxwell always said he wanted to leave at the end of coming season. But the Brazilian and his agent are now ready to negotiate.

"We are open for talks at the moment"

'The situation is always been very clear for us. Maxwell's principle was always to leave Ajax in 2005 or 2006" stated Maxwell's agent Mino Raiola in Algemeen Dagblad.

A serious injury stopped Maxwell from leaving this summer. Instead of a transfer he is working on his rehabilitation. The left back is expected to play again next January.

"Despite of his injury, Maxwell is still very wanted through out Europe and he won't extend his contract for longer than one year" warned Raiola.
