Sydney FC coach Patrick Kisnorbo says he has no control over whether the Sky Blues sell Akol Akon to an overseas club and is only interested in turning the teenage sensation into a “better” player.
Negotiations are continuing between Sydney and an American Major League Soccer outfit over the services of the 17-year-old after an initial seven-figure offer was rejected by the five-time A-League champions.
Akon’s agent Tony Rallis said he was having ongoing discussions with Sky Blues executive vice-chairman Sebastian Gray in the hope of finalising a deal this week.
Should Akon be sold, it’s understood he will be loaned back to Sydney for the 2026-27 season.
