Ajax has reached an agreement with Julian Rijkhoff and Borussia Dortmund on the transfer of the 19-year-old striker to Amsterdam. Rijkhoff signed a contract effective immediately, which runs until June 30, 2027, with the option to extend for another year.
Kelvin de Lang: "Julian will be added to the Ajax 1 training group but will play his matches with Ajax U23 in the coming period. We are delighted that, despite a few other big clubs' interest, Julian has decided to return to Ajax to fight for his chance here."
Rijkhoff (Purmerend, January 25, 2005) left Ajax's youth academy in 2021 to join Borussia Dortmund's youth academy. In the last few seasons, he played for the U19 team of the Germans.
On the last day of January, the Ajax players made their way to the pitch. Within the white chalk lines of De Toekomst, the players worked towards the coming Eredivisie match. PSV will visit the Johan Cruijff ArenA on Saturday. We took a look at the training session.
Ajax have returned from Almelo with three points on Saturday evening. The match against Heracles ended 2-4. This means Ajax still haven’t lost any points in the new year. After the winter break, John van ’t Schips’s team won against both Go Ahead Eagles and RKC Waalwijk.
At the training camp in Spain, we pitted Remko Pasveer against Steven Berghuis to test their knowledge. Which Ajax player knows more about the other or the club? "Daley Blind once organized a quiz, and we were paired together. We won that one convincingly. After that, we were not invited again."
