Swede looks set for Ajax exit

Skysports.com understands Ajax winger Kennedy Bakircioglu is a target for a host of English clubs. Bakircioglu has been made available by new Ajax coach Marco van Basten as he does not figure in the club's plans. The Sweden international has dropped down the pecking order with the Eredivisie giants, who are open to offers for the former FC Twente player. The news has alerted a number of Premier League clubs to Bakircioglu's availability with the player keen to move on from the Amsterdam ArenA if he is not playing regularly. Bakircioglu has been linked with a move to England in the past and the 27-year-old is believed to be keen on trying his luck in the Premier League. Several Spanish sides are also believed to be tracking developments with a loan deal possibly in the offing for the right-sided winger before the closure of the transfer window.
