Burnley begin negotiations to sign Mohamed Daramy from Ajax

According to Fabrizio Romano, Burnley have opened talks to sign Mohamed Daramy from Ajax. Vincent Kompany wants to sign the 21-year-old Danish winger, but Ajax rate the player highly. Negotiations are currently ongoing over a permanent deal as Kompany sees the youngster as a top target.

Mohamed Daramy joined Ajax from FC Copenhagen in the summer of 2021. The Dutch giants spent €12m on the left-winger who was 19 years old at the time of the transfer. Daramy struggled to impress in Amsterdam, which resulted in the player being loaned back to FC Copenhagen last season. In total, he featured 41 times for the Danish side, scoring nine goals and providing seven assists.

Daramy has only featured 16 times for the Ajax first team. However, with a new manager at the wheel in Maurice Steijn, there’s a possibility that the winger could receive more game time this season. A move to Burnley is set to be on the cards, and it’s certainly one that he won’t shy away from. Daramy has plenty of potential and could certainly excel in the Premier League under Vincent Kompany.
