Dutch Champions Ajax are on the cusp of resigning their former protégé Brian Brobbey barely a season after he departed his boyhood club for Germany according to BILD.

It also adds that the striker has already said his goodbyes to his teammates at Leipzig and will join Ajax initially on loan in January.

The 19 year old Dutch born Ghanaian striker left Ajax as a free agent last season but the grass is not always greener as he has struggled to fit in at RB Leipzig this season.

He joined the German side on a four year contract on a free transfer in the summer but wants out of RB Leipzig.

Ajax despite having Sebastien Haller are keen to strengthen their attack and see a loan deal for their former player in January as an ideal transfer option.

Brian Brobbey has featured 14 times this season for Leipzig but has failed to score a goal.
