Ajax is currently performing well in the Eredivisie, holding the 2nd position as of early September 2024. Key players such as Steven Bergwijn, who has scored 8 goals in 6 matches, Dusan Tadic with 5 assists, and defender Jurrien Timber have been instrumental in their campaign. Ajax has been active in the transfer market to maintain their competitive edge in both domestic and European competitions.

The potential loan deal for Kamaldeen Sulemana is seen as a strategic move to bolster their attacking options. Both Ajax and Sulemana’s camp are keenly awaiting FIFA’s approval, which will finalize the transfer.
