Thursday 1 June 2017 19:29, UK
Striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar has returned to a Ajax for a second spell after signing a one-year deal, the Eredivisie club has announced.
The 33-year-old, who recently ended a six-year stay with Schalke, won the KNVB Beker and Johan Cruyff Shield with the Amsterdam club between 2006 and 2008.
However, the Eredivisie title eluded him and Huntelaar feels he has unfinished business with this season's runners-up.
"It's no secret that Ajax are my club, so I'm very happy to be back here," he told their official website.
"I won cups with Ajax but not the league title. The goal is to have that trophy at the end of the season, along with the rest of the team.
