I'd love to know the scouting process here , it's obvious he wasn't the number 1 target as that seemed to be Theo Bair from Motherwell but we got outbid there by Auxerre. I just don't see what he really offers , isn't especially great in the air even if most of his goals for Cambridge were headers we've only seen it at the wrong end.
I know Jones has always had physical powerful strikers in his sides but Ahadme just feels like a complete dud.

I don't want to write him off completely but recruitment is always a bit of a lottery. Out of all the signings in the summer only he and Campbell could be seen as bad ones, that's a pretty good hit rate really. On paper I get why we signed him, on the pitch he hasn't lived up to it.
Sounds a bit far fetched but he could be a reasonable centre back as he's good in the air. Wouldn't be the first one to be converted and excel in a different position. Lol

Apart from his defensive positioning and tackling this is a super idea.

Shame we couldn't get Blair. He has got twice as many goals as Ahadme this season... 2.
The reason that Ahadme has not featured is that he is too slow. Modern football even down in league one is that the pace is intense. He cannot close down quickly enough, he can't be a channel runner and he can't chase flickons through the centre. He might have a decent touch, an eye for goal in the box, but without pace he will never feature in a Jones team.

Jones has shown that he actively improves players. Considering those early season performances, some of the transformations have been nothing short of miraculous.
It’s not completely crazy to imagine that we see more from Ahadme at some point 🤷♂️

15 in the Scottish Prem 23/24 and 2 in Ligue 1 24/25 (only 11 starts).
I wouldn’t be opposed to signing him this summer if Auxerre aren’t keen…
