Ajax has confirmed the transfer of Simon Adingra, a 24-year-old winger, from Sunderland. VoetbalPrimeur reports that the move comes at a good time for the player, who was identified by Ajax's head scout Jeremy Seethal at the Right to Dream Academy in 2017.

Seethal, who picked Adingra from the academy, has high praise for the player's skills. "He is a true flair player," Seethal said. "Ajax is signing someone who naturally fits in with what Ajax does best. Light-footed, great movements, tricky. He gives the supporters something to get excited about. He is truly a Right to Dream kind. He deserves to play every match."
Adingra's transfer to Ajax was planned before he joined Sunderland, where he failed to make a significant impact. The player has been in contact with Seethal throughout his career, and the two have maintained a close relationship.
