Ajax made a bid of 9 million euros for the 18-year-old striker Mustafa Hekimoğlu. The bid was rejected by Besiktas due to several reasons, including the payment terms which involved spreading the amount over several installments. Additionally, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who is fond of the young striker, opposed the sale. Hekimoğlu is under contract with Besiktas until 2028 and played 20 matches in the Süper Lig this season, scoring two goals. He also played against Ajax in a Europa League match last year.

Mustafa Erhan Hekimoğlu, a 17-year-old forward from Beşiktaş, is being closely monitored by Ajax. The Dutch club has added him to their watchlist and is expected to make a formal offer by the end of the season. Oğuzhan Özyakup, a former Beşiktaş player, confirmed Ajax's interest by mentioning a conversation with an Ajax executive who acknowledged knowing Mustafa. Despite limited playing time, Mustafa has impressed with his performance.
