Amsterdam giants have officially announced that as of the start of season 2018/19 their stadium will be renamed in honor of their greatest player ever, Johan Cruyff, who passed away in 2016.
Speaking to the Ajax website, general director Edwin van der Sar stated:
Johan Cruyff is the biggest football player that Ajax has produced. Partly thanks to him, Ajax is a big name at home and abroad.
It’s nice that the stadium is named after him.
Official video introduction for such nice rebranding also has been released:
