'My dream move'
Enoh convinced Ajax coach Marco van Basten he could be a useful option in central midfield during a trial at the Amsterdam ArenA, having earlier seen a move to Israel's Maccabi Haifa FC fall through. His two-year deal includes the option of a further two years. "I was disappointed when the Maccabi Haifa transfer collapsed, but this is a new chance to make my dream move to Europe," said Enoh, who scored one goal in 36 South African league games. "There is lots of hard work ahead but I know I can do the job in Amsterdam." Ajax play FK Borac in the UEFA Cup first round.
