Ajax remain hopeful of signing Timothy Fosu-Mensah despite Bayer Leverkusen's interest in the Manchester United defender.
Fosu-Mensah has rejected a new contract from United as he wants to seek more first-team opportunities elsewhere.
The 23-year-old came through the ranks at Ajax before joining United in 2014.
Leverkusen, lead by former Ajax manager Peter Bosz, are reportedly the frontrunners for Fosu-Mensah.
According to Algemeen Dagblad, however, Ajax have not given up hope of signing their former academy star.
The Eredivisie giants are hoping Fosu-Mensah's history with the club will help their pursuit.
United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has confirmed the club will not stop Fosu-Mensah leaving this month.
