A product of the Ajax youth academy, the center-back has been linked with a possible move back to the Dutch outfit in recent times.
Toby Alderweireld is not an option Ajax are considering to reinforce their defense in January, says manager Erik Ten Hag.
Alderweireld began his playing career with Ajax, rising through the ranks to earn a promotion to the senior team after joining their youth academy back in 2004.
The Belgium international blossomed as a defender and moved to Atletico Madrid in 2013 for a reported €15 million before joining forces with Tottenham two years later.
He has now been linked with a return to Eredivisie with interest reported from Ajax and PSV Eindhoven.
The 31-year-old, however, remains a key player for the north London side, having taken in 16 appearances for Jose Mourinho’s team across all competitions in 2020-21 and has a contract until 2023.
“We have good contact with Alderweireld, but we have no concrete interest,” Ten Hag told ESPN.
“We are in constant contact. [Director of football] Marc [Overmars] maintains close contacts with all players who have left Ajax, just look at [Davy] Klaassen. At the moment that is not the case.”
