The Nigerian-born forward, who naturally plays as a centre-forward, has been deployed on the left wing by Ajax manager Francesco Fariloli this season.

Akpom has managed seven goals in 26 appearances for the former European champions, and despite the challenges, he is committed to giving his best for the team.

"It has been difficult. But I try to adapt. It is not natural for me to play on the side," Akpom told Ajaxshowtime.
