23 February: Brutil Hosé will be loaned out to
satellite club Haarlem for the rest of the season. After
unsuccessful attempts to leave Ajax for English sides
Sunderland and Middlesbrough, the 22-year old now has consented
to go to Haarlem at last. Two years ago Hosé, together
with Kevin Bobson, fiercely refused to go to Ajax' brand new
satellite club since they deemed themselves too good for the
first division.
But Hosé's career only went further downhill, owing
both to average soccer qualities and a poor attitude. Instead
of going to Haarlem, Ajax loaned him out to De Graafschap where
he never really broke into the first team, only playing three
matches. Last year he reached rock bottom when he, as a player
of Young De Graafschap, wasn't even lined up in the match
against Young Ajax at De Toekomst. Reason: he arrived too
late.
Finally, not even De Graafschap wanted the once so promising
striker anymore and sent him back to Ajax. Back home he was
stored at the Young Ajax team where he had some success by
playing a role in their Amstel Cup triumph this season. But it
was again a somewhat dubious role. After a good start this
season, in which he scored three good goals in the Amstel Cup,
Hosé had to miss the best part, the semi-final, due to a
six match suspension. In the quarter final against FC Twente,
Hosé got into a scuffle and with a well aimed 'uppercut'
knocked down Twente's Hulshoff, adding another black page to
his own short soccer history.
Together with Kevin Bobson and Andy van der Meyde,
Hosé once formed the very talented frontline of the
successful Ajax A1 youth team in the mid-nineties. He made his
debut for the first team under Morten Olsen on 15 November
1998, in the top clash against PSV. However, he never secured a
spot in the team. In total he played 20 matches for Ajax-1, in
which he scored three goals.
Hosé will be the sixth Ajax player to join Haarlem.
He will be reunited with former club mates Darl Douglas,
Serginho Greene, Didi Longuet, Serge van der Ban and Marc
Stuut. (BV)
