In the summer off-season, the 21-year-old bek moved to Tottenham for 40 million euros, becoming the most expensive transfer in the history of "spurs".

Despite the transfer of Sanchez to one of the strongest teams of the Premier League, Edwin van der Sar believes that the player should have stayed in Amsterdam.

"I think one year in Ajax is too small for Sanchez. He should have stayed for another two or three years ".

"Nevertheless, sometimes the financial power of clubs from the top-leagues is crucial. Sometimes even a big club like Ajax, it's hard to resist some transfers, "said van der Sar in an interview with Soccerex.

This season, Sanchez played one duel in the Premier League.

Previously reported that Manchester City wants to acquire a defender of "spurs" Toby Alderwayrelda next winter.
