Chuba Akpom is reportedly set to leave Ajax before the end of the January transfer window.

Softfootball reports that the 29-year-old striker is expected to join another club on loan, with a potential option to make the move permanent.

Akpom is believed to be keen on leaving the Dutch giants after struggling to secure regular playing time since joining the club from Middlesbrough in 2023.

The Nigerian-born forward has also been deployed out of his preferred position during his time in Amsterdam, making it difficult for him to establish himself as a key player.

Several clubs are reportedly interested in signing the striker, with Fiorentina, Lille and Sunderland among the potential destinations.

Leicester City, managed by former Manchester United boss Ruud van Nistelrooy, have also been linked with a move for Akpom.

The experienced forward now faces an important decision over his future as the transfer deadline approaches, with a loan move likely to provide him with the opportunity to secure more regular football.
