Ajax-toptransfer gains momentum as Leonardo reaches De Toekomst

Vandaag, Ajax-toptransfer Marcos Leonardo arrived at De Toekomst for his mandatory medical examination, confirming the Brazilian striker’s move is imminent. The arrival, captured by VoetbalPrimeur, underscores that the transfer is now a matter of time. On Sunday, interest in Leonardo surged when Ajax’s concrete Amsterdamse interest was reported early in the day. Hours later, footage showed the 23‑year‑old Al Hilal forward heading towards Amsterdam, confirming the deal was close. The rapid progression suggests the club is preparing to announce the signing within days. It had already been clear that the Braziliaan would undergo his medical on Monday. VoetbalPrimeur’s video now shows Leonardo stepping onto the De Toekomst training complex for the examination. The medical clearance is the final hurdle before the transfer can be officially registered.

Ajax clears medical hurdle for Braziliaanse striker Leonardo

Technical director Jordi Cruijff appears set to pay a fixed fee of around €17.5 million, potentially rising to €19 million with bonuses. Alleen Josip Sutalo (€20.5 million), Sébastien Haller (€22.5 million), Calvin Bassey (€23 million) en Steven Bergwijn (€31.25 million) hebben ooit meer gekost voor Ajax. Leonardo would become Ajax’s third summer acquisition for the first team, joining earlier arrivals Caio Henrique and Daley Blind. The addition would bolster Ajax’s attacking options ahead of the upcoming season. Marc‑André ter Stegen remains another target still on the path to an Ajax move.
