Italian club Napoli has entered the race to sign Kenneth Taylor, the midfielder of Ajax Amsterdam, during the upcoming winter transfer window, amid recent developments regarding the player's future with his Dutch club.

According to press reports, Ajax's management has decided to lower the financial amount required to release Taylor, following the failure of contract extension negotiations in recent times. This has opened the door for several European clubs to closely monitor his situation.

Taylor has been a key player in Ajax's lineup in recent seasons, drawing attention with his technical skills and versatility in midfield roles. This has made him a target for several clubs looking to strengthen their squads with a young and promising player.

Amid the stalled renewal negotiations and the reduced financial demands, Kenneth Taylor's departure during the winter transfer window has become likely, with expectations that Napoli will enter official talks to finalize the deal in the coming weeks.
