Kamaldeen Sulemana’s Ajax move falls through over late documentation

Southampton and Ghanaian winger Kamaldeen’s move from Southampton to Ajax has failed to materialize after documents to sign the player were delayed on deadline day.

Sulemana was headed for the Dutch capital on a season long loan with an option to buy worth about €20m until the unlikely incident.

Although the leeway, which was Steve Bergwijn moving out of the club to accommodate Sulemana did eventually happen (with his move to Saudi club Al-Ittihad), It may have come a little too late.

Fifa has denied the written request from all parties, per reliable Dutch and Ajax journalist Mike Verweij.

The documents of Sulemana’s move were submitted late on transfer deadline, preventing the completion of the formalities within the stipulated time.

Sulemana, who has now made a massive U-turn, will still remain at English club Southampton as he continues to work his way from injury into Russell Martin’s side for the remainder of the 2024-25 Premier League season.
