Ajax have offered a new deal valid until June 2027 to top talent van Axel Dongel but there’s still no agreement, there’s gap between parties. Current contract expires in June; he could leave on a free. Top clubs around Europe are keen on signing him in the summer.

Inter Milan CEO Beppe Marotta: “Lukaku deal? He will return to Chelsea as it’s straight loan, it’s part of the deal — then we will see. Lukaku is not in good condition yet, we are still waiting to see the real Romelu as we saw in the past.”
