DALEY BLIND has been booed by his own Ajax fans – prompting fury from his boss Erik ten Hag.
The former Manchester United star, 32, has played more than 300 times for the Amsterdam club across two spells, winning 10 trophies in the process.
His success and longevity hasn’t seen him escape the rage of his team’s fans, however, who booed him off against Feyenoord prior to the recent international break.
It was Dusan Tadic’s turn to feel the ire of a crowd yesterday, upon his return to former club FC Groningen.
Quizzed about the boo boys after the game, boss Ten Hag admitted that it’s his own team’s problem too.
He said: “With Dusan it was Groningen supporters, but we can say the same about Ajax supporters.

“This is unacceptable. Daley brought this club and Dutch football so much yet he still gets treated like this by his own fans.
“Unacceptable. We can learn a lesson from other countries where players are treated with more respect.”
Blind was diagnosed with a heart problem after collapsing in an Ajax friendly in 2020 but has made a successful return to the pitch.
Ten Hag’s comments come off the back of a number of high-profile booing incidents in the last month.
