Ajax boss John Heitinga has put the blame on RANGERS for Calvin Bassey's struggles since leave Ibrox for the Eredivise in the summer.

Heitinga has used the 23-year-old sparingly since being handed the reins in Amsterdam following the sacking of Alfred Schreuder as he looks to get the Eredivise title push back on track.

The Nigeria international has been heavily criticised since his £19million move from Ibrox to Dutch football, after playing a starring role in Rangers run to last season's Europa League final with Ajax greats lining up to take pot shots at the versatile defender.

After being handed a rare start in the Europa League stalemate with Union Berlin, Bassey was back on the bench during the 4-0 victory over Sparta Rotterdam and was handed a 20-minute cameo at the Johan Cruyff Arena.
