Kaplan (Trabzon, January 16, 2003) joined Ajax from the Turkish Trabzonspor in the summer of 2022 as a 19-year-old player. After a settling-in period with Ajax U23, he made his first-team debut on February 15, 2024, in the away league match against AZ. Since then, the Turk has made 25 official appearances for Ajax’s first team.
Alex Kroes: "Ahmetcan has shown with us that he possesses talent. Unfortunately, his development was somewhat hampered by injuries, but we have always appreciated his commitment and qualities. At NEC he now gets the chance to further develop himself and become important in the first team. We have every confidence that he can take steps there and we wish him every success."
