Ajax has traveled to Croatia without several key players for their upcoming Conference League match against Hajduk Split. The squad is missing Steven Berghuis, Anton Gaaei, and Caio Henrique due to ongoing injuries, leaving the trio behind in Amsterdam. Additionally, Simon Adringa, who debuted for the team in a recent draw against NEC, was left out after failing to recover from a minor fitness issue encountered during that fixture.

The team also remains without Daley Blind and the long-term absentee Kasper Dolberg. Furthermore, Yves Bissouma will not participate in the match as he is currently ineligible for Conference League play. Despite these significant personnel absences, manager Michel Sanchez has named a 22-man squad for the encounter. The opening match of the Conference League main stage is scheduled to take place this Thursday at 18.45 hours.
