Calvin Bassey is closing in on a move to Ajax.
Fabrizio Romano
says
Ajaxare close to signing Bassey for £19 million from Rangers. The versatile defender may undergo medicals with the Dutch champions soon.
Calvin Bassey
will make Rangers a huge profit after joining
Leicester Cityin 2020 for a £300,000 development fee.
Bassey's move to Ajax will be Rangers' record transfer cost, surpassing Nathan Patterson's £12mil move to
Everton
in January. Last season, Bassey replaced Steven Gerrard after he left for
Aston Villa
.
The Nigerian international was exceptional in Rangers' Europa League final loss to Frankfurt. Bassey is comfortable at left-back, left-wing back, and center-back. Van Bronckhorst will have a tough time replacing the outgoing star, but a transfer windfall will help.
