Voetbal International's Tim van Duijn reported the news Wednesday night, less than 24 hours before Ajax's last league phase match in the Europa League against Turkish giants Galatasaray.
25-year-old Edvardsen has impressed for high flying Go Ahead Eagles in the Eredivisie with 8 goals and 3 assists in just 14 league games. Van Duijn reported that Ajax and Go Ahead Eagles are already in the advanced stages of the negotiations for the Norwegian winger.
Seventh-placed Go Ahead Eagles will reportedly receive €3 million for the Norwegian winger whose contract expires this summer.
The Dutch record champions have dealt with low depth in the attack with Belgian youngster Mika Godts being the only natural left winger in the squad, prompting technical director Alex Kroes to search for reinforcements.
After a move for Spanish winger Raul Moro of Real Valladolid broke down earlier this month due to Moro suffering a lengthy injury, Ajax have been in talks with Wolverhampton Wanderers about a possible termination of Portuguese winger Carlos Forbs' loan at the Premier League club.
Ajax currently sit in second place in the Dutch Eredivisie with 44 points, four points behind leaders PSV with a game in hand.
