The Dutch heavyweights have reportedly agreed fresh terms over extension with their talented teenager of Ghanaian descent after attracting an admiring glances from potential suitors ahead of the summer
Dutch-born Ghanaian starlet Denzel Darko has agreed contract extension with Eredivisie giants Ajax, with the official announcement set to be made soon, according to an emerging report from the Dutch media.
The 16-year-old, currently with the Ajax U17, has so far enjoyed a breakthrough season in the U17 Division 1 Case contest, with such stellar performances now attracting serious interest from Europe's leading sides in an effort to lure him from his childhood club in the summer.
According to Dutch Newspaper, De Telegraaf, the Johan Cruyff Arena campaigners have acted swiftly by succeeding in tying down their promising academy product to a new deal thereby warding off potential suitors from poaching him in the next transfer window.
An Ajax insider associated with the tabloid has claimed: ''It is becoming increasingly difficult for the Dutch top clubs to keep the biggest talents on board, too. Ajax has achieved a nice little success in that regard. The Amsterdam top club has reached an agreement with 16-year-old talents Denzel Darko and Jeshurun Simeon regarding a contract extension.''
Given his glaring talent, the Ghana FA technical team would now be compelled to monitor his progress at Ajax for future call-ups on the international stage having played for the Netherlands U15 national youth team.
