Kasper Dolberg returns to Ajax squad after transfer stalls
AFC Ajax has reintegrated Kasper Dolberg into their squad after his planned move to Midtjylland stalled. The striker, who was linked with Celtic last summer, played in the friendly against Olympiacos on Saturday and is now included in the traveling squad for the Conference League qualifier against Vojvodina. Ajax currently sits sixth in the Eredivisie with 0 points after scoring and conceding 0 goals.
What does this mean for Dolberg?
Dolberg, who joined Ajax for around £6-7 million last year, has struggled to make an impact in Amsterdam. In 22 league appearances, he scored just 3 goals. His transfer to Midtjylland depends on the sale of their current striker, Franculino Dju, who scored against Celtic last year.
What comes next?
While Celtic still has interest in Dolberg, the club seems more focused on another Danish striker, Kasper Høgh. According to journalist Stephen McGowan, Celtic was genuinely interested in Dolberg last year, but the deal fell through due to a low bid and the striker's lack of conviction.
What does the future hold for Dolberg?
With his return to the Ajax squad, Dolberg gets another chance to prove himself. Whether he stays or eventually leaves depends on future developments. For now, he is available for the match against Vojvodina, while Ajax continues to search for a replacement for the sidelined Dolberg.
