Ajax coach Marco van Basten insists he is not concerned by reports linking striker Klaas Jan Huntelaar with a move away from the club.

The Holland international has been linked in the Dutch press with a transfer to both Real Madrid and Arsenal.

But Van Basten said: "I am not worried about that. I know nothing about it, only that Klaas feels very good at Ajax.

"We want to finish the coming season with Klaas."

Wesley Sneijder left the Amsterdam ArenA for Real Madrid last August in a 27 million euros switch, and Van Basten does not want this season's preparations to be disrupted by the loss of a key player.

"We have already said earlier that we don't want to see a repeat of what happened last season when a player left Ajax at a very late stage," said the 43-year-old.

"If you see him go after all you can't do anything with the money that the transfer brings in."
