West Ham United's Edson Alvarez remains on Ajax's transfer agenda.
is according to football newsWhich cover the interest of the Dutch club and the possibility of securing his services.
The Mexico international spent four years at Ajax before leaving for West Ham in August 2023.
Last summer, the Hammers let the midfielder join Fenerbahçe on loan with an option to buy for a reported €22m. In November, witness the game Turkish claims covered This figure is much higher for yellow canaries.
Ajax failed to sign West Ham man
The Eredivisie side had looked at the 28-year-old in the winter market. On January 22, Khel Witness news broadcast from netherlands Ajax director Marijan Beuker is traveling to Istanbul for a meeting with Alvarez and his agent.
The move never came to fruition due to Fenerbahçe director Devin Ozek confirmsThere were no plans to let him leave in the mid-season window.
Turkish claims reported a late offer from Ajax but were rejected by the Dutch press. The West Ham-owned player has struggled with injuries, limiting his playing time with the Istanbul club.
He played 1,125 minutes in 17 matches in all competitions for Fenerbahçe and is now on the sidelines with an ankle injury. Earlier this month, the Mexican underwent surgery and there is confidence He will be fit in time for the World Cup.
Soccer News say Fenerbahçe are unlikely to make his stay permanent due to injury concerns and the arrival of N'Golo Kante. If this happens, the midfielder will have to return to the Premier League team.
Alvarez could return to Ajax
In that case, Ajax could step forward again to try to sign Alvarez after this season. The search for an experienced midfielder has not been successful and Ajax technical director Jordi Cruyff could launch a new effort in the summer.
This is where the West Ham man comes into the picture. After January's failure, Soccer News say 'the situation looks more favourable' in the next window. This is because he is unlikely to remain in Türkiye due to injuries and fresh competition from Thorn.
Ajax have a 'realistic chance' of securing the services of Alvarez if Nuno Espirito Santo's side cooperate. However, this depends on the Eredivisie side meeting the financial requests of both the Mexican and West Ham.
