Romanian legend Gheorghe Hagi is proud that Ravzan Marin will play with Ajax next season.

Ajax have signed Marin from Standard Liege on a five-year deal but before that the 22-year-old played under Hagi with Viitorul Constanta.

Hagi was a guest at Ajax and told the club’s website, “It is a great honor for us that Razvan signs with a large club like Ajax, because he grew up with us. He played with us at FC Viitorul, then he went to Standard Liège and there he did very well for two years. Now he is making the big step to Ajax and I hope he will learn a lot here. “

Hagi saw qualities of Barcelona legend Xavi in Marin when he broke through in Romania, “He is number 8, a midfielder with a lot of talent, he is two-footed, he is creative, technical and can also score easily. I said four or five years ago, when he debuted with us, that he looks a lot like Xavi from Barça. Xavi is, of course, Xavi, but Razvan has a bit of the same style. Very creative. “
