Kenneth Taylor’s Potential Transfer from Ajax to Lazio: An Unfolding Situation

Kenneth Taylor appears to be on the verge of transferring from Ajax to Lazio, but is the situation more complex than it seems?

According to renowned Italian transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano, discussions are well underway. He reported earlier on Wednesday that “Lazio is in advanced talks with Ajax to acquire Kenneth Taylor as a midfielder. Negotiations are currently ongoing, and the deal is nearing completion; the player is eager to make the move to Lazio. He is expected to fill the void left by Mattéo Guendouzi, who is set to join Fenerbahçe.”

However, a different perspective is presented by Johan Inan, a club reporter for Algemeen Dagblad. He suggests that the narrative may not align with the accounts from Romano and other sources. Inan states, “The clubs are close to reaching an agreement, but Lazio must still persuade Taylor to commit to the transfer.”

Moreover, there is another layer to this situation. Inan adds, “Several clubs have expressed interest in Taylor over the past few weeks. He is viewed as an attractive option for the summer transfer window from top leagues. With a year remaining on his contract in Amsterdam, Ajax is likely to lower their asking price as the summer approaches.” The question remains: Will Taylor make the move, or will he choose to stay?
