The 19-year-old is first choice for Emmen this season and has impressed many clubs with his performances.
Dagblad van het Noorden are reporting that Ajax have held informal talks with the goalkeeper and may even have a personal agreement already.
However, this has been denied by his agent Edwin Olde Riekerink, “Kjell is nineteen years old and already the first goalkeeper, he is doing well, so it would be crazy if that did not stand out at bigger clubs, but he is absolutely not around with Ajax. If they want to sign Kjell, they also have to pass FC Emmen first.”
Ajax may be looking at Scherpen as they look for a possible replacement for Andre Onana, who has been linked with a return to Barcelona.
