BREAKING: Kamaldeen Sulemana's move to Ajax OFF as FIFA rejects transfer proposal

The anticipated transfer of Black Stars winger Kamaldeen Sulemana from Southampton to Ajax Amsterdam has collapsed, according to renowned football insider Fabrizio Romano. 

Romano broke the news on his X (formerly Twitter) account, confirming that the deal, which was under review by FIFA after Ajax submitted the transfer documents in the final minutes of the summer window, has fallen through.

Earlier reports had indicated that Ajax was keen on signing Sulemana as a replacement for Steven Bergwijn, who recently moved to Saudi Pro League side Al-Ittihad.

However, despite the intense last-minute efforts, the transfer failed to materialize, dashing hopes of Sulemana joining the Dutch giants.

Sulemana, who previously played for the Right to Dream Academy, has yet to feature in the 2024-2025 season due to an injury.

This injury also ruled him out of contention for Ghana's 2025 AFCON qualifiers against Angola and Niger.
