Sought-after defender Jan Vertonghen has handed Ajax a boost by revealing he expects to remain in Amsterdam for another season. The Belgian has reportedly attracted interest from the Premier League this summer, with both Manchester clubs and Arsenal thought to be chasing his signature. But after considering his future, 24-year-old Vertonghen says he does not see himself parting ways with the Eredivisie champions before the start of the new campaign. "During my vacation I have thought back to the championship a lot," Vertonghen told the club's. "I have many videos on the internet and every time I've looked back I've got goose bumps. The title was one of the best moments of my life and certainly the best of my career."I will focus myself on Ajax until something else comes. Moreover, I want to help them become champions once again. "As it looks now, I will stay for another year in Amsterdam. " Vertonghen returned to pre-season training with Ajax on Monday at their training camp in De Lutte. The Belgium international believes the club have a squad capable of challenging for the title again next year. "We have a very strong selection. It's very balanced," he added. "At each position we have at least two good players. "Furthermore, there are some young guys as well as the necessary experienced players."
