Forward Chuba Akpom may leave the “Ajax” club and move to a team in the English Championship. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The transfer events surrounding the 29-year-old player are surprising many fans. According to reports published on the Transfer News Live page, this process has developed as follows in recent days.
Initially, an agreement was reached for Akpom to move to “Birmingham,” and he was set to undergo a medical examination. However, later “Ipswich” also expressed interest in adding the player to their squad and joined the race for the transfer.
In the meantime, the medical examination scheduled for “Birmingham” was canceled, and a new medical examination was appointed for “Ipswich.” At the same time, “Birmingham” offered a more lucrative contract.
However, Akpom himself expressed a desire to move to “Ipswich.” The management of “Ajax” is also looking to reach an agreement with “Birmingham.”
As a result, Akpom underwent a medical examination for “Ipswich,” but “Birmingham” has not yet backed down. Interestingly, this weekend, including Friday, “Birmingham” and “Ipswich” will face each other in the first round of the Championship.
Therefore, it is still unclear which team Akpom will play for. The transfer process is still ongoing.
