Akpom moved to Ajax in 2023 from English Championship side Middlesbrough. He has been in strong form this season, scoring eight goals in the Eredivisie and adding four more in the UEFA Europa League.
Lille will hope Akpom’s goal-scoring prowess strengthens their attack as they push for domestic and European success.
