フランク・デ・ブール
A few days before the UEFA Champions League match with the Italian club A.C. Milan, Özbiliz had a flu, and so he could not make his debut in the main European Cup tournament. By this time, the new acting head coach Frank de Boer was appointed, as Martin Jol resigned before the match with Milan. He returned to the field for the next game of Ajax, which took place on 12 December against the Vitesse Arnhem. It is noteworthy that Özbiliz was out on the field instead of the debutant teammate Lorenzo Ebecilio. On 22 December, Frank de Boer announced the list of 18 players registered for the upcoming KNVB Cup match with AZ. Özbiliz was among those players, but he appeared only as a substitute in the 89th minute after the winning goal by Miralem Sulejmani.
