EUROPE OR BUST: Ajax Cape Town winger Paul Rusike Photo: Gallo Images

The Zimbabwe international had a trial at Belgian side OH Leuven in August and was close to a move to Europe before the deal failed to materialise.

He said that he has not allowed the disappointment of that failed move to affect him and for now is thinking only about Ajax.

"All I am thinking about now is to play well for Ajax and help us move up the league table," Rusike told Avusa Sports. "I really enjoyed my time in Belgium and it is still my ambition to play in Europe, if not in the January transfer window then at the end of the season.

"But for now I am just worried about getting into the Ajax side and doing well for them. We have a big game against Orlando Pirates and that is all I am thinking about, the next match."

Rusike said that a win in Soweto would be deserved for the Ajax side, who have been playing good football this season, but have just one win to show for it.

"Pirates is a very good team, of course, but we know that we can beat them. We have that belief in our ability. The results have not been so good this season but maybe this is the game where our luck changes."

He said his performances had not been what he had hoped and was relishing the platform of a Pirates clash to show what he could do.

I know now that Springbook will be playing at FNB on the 6th, that game is all over and tickets start from R250, already there is a rush to get those tickets, PSL R40, no one is interested at your games, please research and come up with solutions, I mean only Chiefs and Pirates games are sold out, why not other teams? find out from the two teams what their marketing strategy is
