According to Voetbalprimeur.nl, although there has been silence in recent weeks regarding Bart van Rooij, a departure is still possible in the coming days. Earlier this summer, the player was linked with Ajax and it was reported that Dutch top clubs had him as a target.

According to De Telegraaf reporter Mike Verweij, Bart van Rooij is in no way an option for Ajax.

Ajax is interested in Bart van Rooij. According to RTV Oost, the player has a reported price of approximately ten million euros. According to TC Tubantia, he will only become a serious target for Ajax once Anton Gaaei has departed.

A report from ESPN states that Ajax is targeting FC Twente's 25-year-old Dutch right back, Bart van Rooij, and has held an initial conversation with the player. The Amsterdam club reportedly finds the ten million euro asking price to be too high. Despite this, Ajax believes Van Rooij is suitable for coach Míchel's system, as his current role involving playing next to the central defenders during build-up and delivering line-breaking passes is what the Spanish coach requires from a right back. Van Rooij, who has been capped five times for the Netherlands U19 team, joined Twente in August 2024 and has a contract that runs until 2028. Other clubs that have been linked with the player include Feyenoord and Wolverhampton Wanderers.
