Ajax has agreed to sell 23-year-old midfielder Kian Fitz-Jim to Italian Serie A club Torino for three million euros, pending a medical examination in Italy.
The deal, reached on Wednesday, July 29, 2026, includes a small sell-on clause for the Amsterdam club.

Fitz-Jim was under contract at Ajax until mid-2027, but contract extension talks stalled, making this transfer window the final opportunity for technical director Jordi Cruijff to secure a fee.
Career Path
Fitz-Jim originally joined the Ajax youth academy from AZ in 2019. He made 72 senior appearances for Ajax, scoring seven goals and providing two assists.
