Media reports claim that Ajax are keeping tabs on Kodai Sano, who currently plays as a midfielder for NEC Nijmegen. The move is still in the early stages, but interest appears to be growing. Feyenoord, PSV Eindhoven and Mainz are reportedly waiting in the wings. Finalising a fee and payment terms remains central to closing the transfer. So far this season, Ajax are steady at both ends (1.88 goals scored per game, 1.29 goals conceded per game). The role for Kodai Sano would be to keep that balance while lifting performances across the pitch. Speculation continues to connect Ajax with Julio Cesar Soler while no fresh rumours surround NEC Nijmegen. More on this story as it develops. Need more Ajax transfer rumours?
