Doutie returned to Ikamva this past weekend following spells at Orlando Pirates, SuperSport United, Bidvest Wits and Atlético de Kolkata in India.
“I think he is a good player, a typical Ajax player, Ajax winger – he knows the system, he knows the club,” Menzo told the club’s website.
“He has a lot of quality. I think it is a very good signing.
“Also again, it is some recognition for the fans, he is a real Ajax player, and he was here in the academy, so it is up to him now to showcase those qualities.
“I think with Doutie, he is more a ‘fine’ attacking player; great in playing between the lines, giving through balls, through passes. He has a good cross, good at set-pieces. He can read the game and that is important, especially up front.”
Doutie came on as a second-half substitute for Ajax in the 2-0 win over Cape Town All Stars at Parow Park on Saturday.
