  "account": "Ukraine's Viktor Tsygankov has transferred from Girona to Dutch giants Ajax. The 28-year-old winger signed a contract with Ajax until June 30, 2029. He will don the No. 11 shirt in Amsterdam. Tsygankov promised to give his best for the team, as confirmed by the club's official Twitter account. This marks the third Ukrainian player in Ajax's history, following Oleksandr Zinchenko and Andrii Demchenko. Girona FC and Tsygankov finalized the transfer agreement, with the attacker agreeing to terms until June 30, 2029. The financial details remain undisclosed, but Spanish outlet AS claims Girona will receive 3.5 million euros ($4 million) with potential bonuses adding 1 million euros ($1.2 million). Girona also reportedly retained a share of future transfer fees. Throughout his time at Girona, Tsygankov made 119 appearances, netting 20 goals and providing 23 assists. Last season, the club finished 19th in La Liga and was relegated to Segunda Division. Tsygankov's departure from Girona occurred after disciplinary proceedings were initiated last week, stemming from his refusal to play as a substitute during their opening Segunda match against Leganes.",
