Ajax Want to Keep Jeshurun Simeon Amid Interest from European Clubs

Ajax are close to extending Jeshurun Simeon’s contract. His current deal is ending soon, and top European clubs are interested in him.

WHAT IS HAPPENING AT AJAX?

Ajax and Simeon‘s representatives are negotiating a new contract until 2028. The 16-year-old is a star for Ajax’s youth teams. Known for his skills and goal-scoring, he impressed in the 2025 Ajax Future Cup. Many see him as a top talent.

THE WIDER CONTEXT FOR AJAX AND SIMEON

Ajax’s move to secure Simeon is important. Their senior team finished fifth in the 2024/25 Eredivisie, which is below expectations. They need homegrown talent to rebuild. Simeon’s situation has attracted several major European clubs, waiting for a chance if Ajax talks fail.

WHAT COMES NEXT?

With the new Eredivisie season nearing, Ajax want to finalize Simeon’s extension. They aim to integrate him into the youth setup and prepare him for the first team. Scouts and fans will closely watch their next major youth fixture, following a highly rated teenager. Ajax are also securing other key Academy players to reclaim their spot at the top of Dutch football.
