Pisa centre-forward Lorenzo Lucca is at the centre of a bidding war between Bologna, Sassuolo and now also Ajax.
The Italy Under-21 international looks to be on the move from the Serie B side this summer, but his destination is not yet clear.
Initially, Sportitalia pointed him towards Sassuolo as a replacement for Gianluca Scamacca after the transfer to West Ham United.
Sky Sport Italia then saw Bologna as the favourites and a deal seemingly imminent.
Now the same source claims that Ajax have dived in with a proposal for the striker and have become the new most likely candidates.
Lucca turns 22 in September and has two goals in five caps for Italy at Under-21 level.
The initial proposal was €10m from Bologna, whereas Ajax have seemingly raised their bid to €11-12m.
He had already attracted a great deal of attention at the start of the season when he scored six goals in the opening seven rounds of the Serie B campaign.
However, he did not find the net again throughout the season.
