Ajax and Fulham reach agreement for Calvin Bassey on deal worth €21m

Ajax and Fulham have reached a significant agreement for the transfer of Nigerian defender Calvin Bassey, according to reports from OJB Sports.

The deal, said to be worth over €21 million, will see the 23-year-old join Fulham, offering him a new opportunity to showcase his talents in the English football scene.

Bassey is widely known for his versatility in defense, with the ability to excel as both a central defender and a left fullback. His adaptability and skillset have caught the attention of various clubs, including Brighton and Hove Albion, but it appears that Fulham has emerged as the frontrunner in securing his signature.

Ajax’s decision to part ways with Bassey comes after selling defender Timber to Arsenal, leaving them in the market for reinforcements in their backline.
