Graham not pushing for Ajax exit

Cape Town - Ajax Cape Town captain Travis Graham admits a good offer will always be welcomed, but is adamant he is committed to his contract with the Urban Warriors for now.

After a stellar campaign, the 23-year-old has attracted interest from some of the heavyweight clubs in the Absa Premiership. However, the Amaglug-glug international insists that he is happy at Ikamva.

"Well, personally as Travis Graham I think I would welcome a move if firstly it is going to improve my lifestyle for the future and secondly if the deal suits and is welcomed by Ajax," Graham told Goal website.

"It is important to note that I am still contracted to Ajax and it is where I am currently enjoying my football and it is where I would want to continue playing my football even next season.

"It is not a must that I move now because to be honest, I really am happy at the club."

Graham also revealed that Europe remains his dream destination, pointing to former Urban Warriors skipper Granwald Scott, who moved to Slovakia at the age of 28 two seasons ago, as his inspiration.

"Take someone like Scotty [Scott] for example, it is inspiring to note how he used his perseverance as motive to realise his dream of playing in Europe," Graham added.
