After a challenging first season with Ajax, Anton Gaaei is once again full of confidence. We meet the young Dane in the Amsterdam Forest and talk to him about the support from his best friend, who is also his brother, the energy he draws from negative comments, and his mental resilience.
We spoke with Anton Gaaei about his heroic role during the penalty shootout against Panathinaikos in the UEFA Europa League qualifiers. We also look back at the loss against NAC Breda and look ahead to the first leg against Jagiellonia Białystok in the play-offs for the European tournament.
It was impossible for Anton Gaaei to think of any other club after Ajax showed interest in him. The Danish defender, who likes to play offensively, is very happy with his contract in Amsterdam. "I'm relieved the deal is done."
Ajax has reached an agreement with Anton Gaaei and Viborg FF on the transfer of the defender to Amsterdam. The 20-year-old Dane signed a contract effective immediately. The contract will run for five years until June 2028.
