Van Oosterhout (January 18, 2010, Purmerend) joined Ajax's youth academy from AZ in the summer of 2025. The youth international will be part of Ajax U17 next season.

Director of Football Marijn Beuker: "Charly joined our youth academy last summer and has enjoyed a strong debut season. He is a goal-oriented striker who can also operate as an attacking midfielder. He is technically gifted, maintains an excellent overview in and around the penalty area and lives for scoring goals. We are convinced that Charly can continue to develop over the coming years, and we are confident that he will take significant steps within Ajax."
