Andreas Schjelderup Transfer from Benfica to Ajax

Ajax showed interest in Andreas Schjelderup as an alternative to Raúl Moro of Real Valladolid. However, Benfica is not cooperating with the transfer, and Schjelderup has no plans to leave this winter. Schjelderup is breaking through at Benfica, having started in the last three matches and scoring in key games. Despite approaches from Ajax, the transfer will not happen.

Benfica was approached by several clubs for a loan of Schjelderup. Ajax was one of the clubs interested in a loan move and had attempted to sign him last summer. However, Benfica has refused to loan Schjelderup, for whom they paid €14.03 million, indicating their belief in his potential.

Andreas Schjelderup, who joined Benfica in January 2023, has not met the club's expectations. Last season, he went back to FC Nordsjaelland on loan. This season, he has participated in only ten matches, all as a substitute during cup competitions. Benfica had appeared to make a strategic move by acquiring Schjelderup, who was regarded as one of Europe's promising talents. However, his performance in Portugal did not meet the anticipated standards. Ajax, looking for options for a left winger, might perceive potential in Schjelderup as a developmental project under Farioli, acknowledging his undeniable talent.
