Ajax Loses Edson Álvarez
Ajax seems to be losing out on Edson Álvarez. The Mexican midfielder was the top choice of the Amsterdam club to strengthen the no. 6 position, but now a transfer seems unlikely.
Ajax has already signed six players this summer, but there are still five players who can be signed before the transfer window closes. If players leave, Ajax can still sign more players.
Ajax is now on the verge of signing a deal with 19-year-old left-back Jofre Torrents from Barcelona. Ajax wants to sign Torrents on an initial free transfer, with performance bonuses worth up to €6 million. It is unclear if Barcelona will agree to this.
What Next?
Ajax wants to sign a new left winger if Mika Godts leaves. Ajax has already held talks with Noa Lang about a potential deal, but nothing is concrete yet.
Michel Sanchez also wants to sign a new right winger. Ajax had earlier shown interest in Roony Bardghji from Barcelona, but the Swedish winger has suffered a serious injury and will be out for many months.
What's Next?
Ajax has a lot of work to do to complete the transfer window. The club wants to sign a new defensive midfielder, and there are still many other players who can be signed.
Current Stand
Ajax is currently in 3rd place in the Eredivisie, with 3 points and 1 win out of 1 game. The club has scored 2 goals and conceded 0 goals so far this season.
