Brobbey, 18, had come on in the 73rd minute to replace David Neres and quickly made his presence felt greatly after grabbing the match-winner for Ajax.
The budding striker who is eligible to play for the Black Stars could leave Ajax this summer after failing to renew his contract with the club.
German giants Dortmund, RB Leipzig, Italian side AC Milan and Barcelona are all reported to be interested in the service of the young striker according to his agent Carmine “Mino” Raiola.
