Galatasaray have reportedly reached an agreement with Ajax for Kenny Tete
right-back Kenny Tete has emerged as a surprise target for Galatasaray ahead of the summer transfer window.
According to the football transfer rumours in Dutch Media (Football Oranje), Galatasaray are set to sign Ajax right-back Kenny Tete.
The Netherlands international has joined Ajax in 2005. The 21-year-old has a valid contract with Ajax until June 2018.
Tete has scored three goals and provided two assists in 23 games for Ajax in all competitions this season.
The 21-year-old is considered to be one of the best right-backs in Netherlands.
Kenny Tete has represented Netherlands at Under-17, Under-18, Under-19, Under-20 and Under-21 level, winning 14 caps, before making his senior international debut in October 2015. As a member of Netherlands national football team, Kenny Tete has won six caps.
Adding a right-back remains Galatasaray’s top priority this summer and Igor Tudor will have drafted a shortlist of a number of possible targets he could approach in the coming days.
Igor Tudor has always been a manager who keeps his eyes on the most talented young players in Europe.
The Netherlands international is thought to perfectly fit the profile of defensive player Igor Tudor wants to target in the summer transfer window.
Igor Tudor will reportedly be handed a huge transfer kitty this summer and the Ajax right-back is thought to be among the manager’s priorities.
Galatasaray are in the market for just a handful of statement signings this summer who can improve the first-team.
According to the report, the deal has been agreed between Ajax and Galatasaray, and now the Turkish giants will speak with the Netherlands international to convince him about a move to Turkey.
