AJ Auxerre may lose Kévin Danois, the French midfielder, who is attracting the attention of two English clubs. West Ham and Newcastle are reportedly interested in the Auxerre player.
What's happening?
Kévin Danois, aged 22, represents a particularly interesting investment for English clubs. The midfielder is currently tied to AJ Auxerre until June 2029. This long contract duration puts the Burgundy club in a favorable position.
Why does it matter for Auxerre?
The Auxerre directors could thus negotiate a significant transfer fee. The player's value is currently estimated at 20 million euros. This long contract duration allows Auxerre to drive up the price.
What comes next?
West Ham and Newcastle are now attentive to the evolution of this situation. The two clubs could quickly take action during the summer transfer market. The English competition could thus allow Auxerre to drive up the price. The French club must however decide quickly on the future of its young midfielder.
AJ Auxerre is currently at the top of Ligue 1, with 0 points scored and 0 goals conceded. The team's next match will take place on February 20, 2027 against Nice, away. Marvin Senaya is currently injured.
The Kévin Danois dossier has already known a first important advance. Hull City recently transmitted an offer estimated at 15 million euros. This proposal remains however below the current valuation of the French midfielder. AJ Auxerre could therefore claim more to accept the departure of its player. This first offensive confirms however the growing interest around Kévin Danois.
A convincing season with AJ Auxerre
Kévin Danois is having a particularly convincing season with the Burgundy club. He has played 34 matches during the current season. He has scored three goals and delivered one assist during this period. His performances seem to have now attracted the attention of several English clubs. His age is also an important argument for the interested formations.
West Ham and Newcastle follow the dossier
West Ham and Newcastle are now attentive to the evolution of this situation. The two clubs could quickly take action during the summer transfer market. The English competition could thus allow Auxerre to drive up the price. The French club must however decide quickly on the future of its young midfielder. An offer close to 20 million euros could finally convince the Auxerre directors. Kévin Danois could therefore become one of the big sales of AJ Auxerre this summer.
