The chairman of Ikon Allah Academy, Ayi Mohammed, in an exclusive interview with Footy-Africa has disclosed that AIK are yet to receive any concrete offers for highly rated youngster Zadok Yohanna, despite growing interest across Europe.
While Ayi Mohammed confirmed that there is strong interest in the teenager, no official bid has yet been submitted, with AIK valuing him at around €35 million.
“Yeah, of course. There are so many clubs, not only Brighton, but it’s the offer. I think AIK are demanding for a lot of money. So I think there’s no concrete decision yet,” the Ikon Allah Academy CEO exclusively told Footy-Africa.

“Nobody is dropping offers now like that. But at least their target is €35 million. They are placing like €35 million on him.”
Mohammed also confirmed that Brighton’s interest is genuine, with the Premier League club considering a possible bid to secure his signature:
“Yeah, but I think you saw the news of Brighton too, but AIK have not accepted yet. There are a lot of clubs. Yes, even Brighton too, they are interested.”
The summer transfer window officially opens on the 15th of this month, although a deal could be reached beforehand if AIK can reach an agreement with any of the interested clubs.
However, Mohammed believes the 18-year-old’s future will be resolved this summer, with a move away from the Swedish club increasingly likely as he takes the next step in his career.
“At any moment we’ll close the deal. But I think he’s moving this summer. I think this summer transfer starts from tomorrow, so we’ll see what happens and within this month, before the 15th of this month, I think everything will be all right,” he concluded.

Yohanna joined the Swedish club from Ikon Allah Academy in 2025 and has quickly established himself as one of the most sought-after young talents ahead of the summer transfer window, following an impressive breakthrough campaign.
The 18-year-old has scored five goals and provided four assists in just 12 appearances across all competitions this season and has attracted attention from several top clubs including Rennes, Real Madrid, Bayer Leverkusen, Borussia Dortmund, RB Leipzig, and most recently Brighton & Hove Albion in the English Premier League.
Yohanna’s future has been uncertain over the past few months, and with the transfer window fast approaching, his future is expected to become clearer as he could secure the next big move of his career.
