Barcelona want to sign Ajax star next summer

Barcelona ‘keen’ on Ajax star who ‘could be available for free’ next summer

Barcelona are reportedly eyeing Ajax defender Devyne Rensch as a potential signing for next summer, with the Dutch international possibly available on a free transfer.

The 21-year-old has been a key figure for Ajax during the 2024-25 season, featuring in 17 matches across all competitions, contributing one goal and one assist.

However, uncertainty looms over his future in Amsterdam, as his current deal is set to expire at the end of the season.

Despite Ajax’s efforts to extend his contract, negotiations have yet to yield an agreement, attracting interest from multiple clubs.

According to *SPORT*, Barcelona have identified Rensch as their primary target for the right-back position, with scouts closely monitoring his performances throughout the campaign.

The report suggests that Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool are also in the race for the versatile defender.

Nevertheless, Ajax are not ready to concede defeat and have reportedly presented the player with a compelling renewal offer in hopes of securing his services for the long term.

Rensch’s availability on a free transfer could make him a valuable addition for any club, and Barcelona are believed to be leading the chase as they aim to bolster their options at full-back next year.
