His real nickname is of course Mister 1-0, but to speak in nautical terms, we could call Davy Klaassen the captain of Ajax this season. Now that the city of Amsterdam is celebrating its 750th anniversary, Ajax its 125th anniversary and SAIL has graced our Amsterdam waters for 50 years, the away kit is for once adorned with a unique emblem. And that was an excellent opportunity to go on board with our captain Davy Klaassen. A conversation with the midfielder about his role models, leadership and dreams.
Davy Klaassen has extended his contract with Ajax by two years. The midfielder is a true Ajacied and feels right at home in Amsterdam. We spoke to him about the past, the previous season, and the future. "There’s still so much we can achieve here and I’m really looking forward to it."
In honour of Amsterdam's 750th anniversary, the 50th anniversary of SAIL, and the 125th anniversary of AFC Ajax, Ajax's away kit will be available during SAIL with a specially designed emblem. The production is symbolically limited to 750 shirts.
How creative are Wout Weghorst and Dies Janse? We find out during a painting session in the Italian city of Como, where the Ajax players set out to make a portrait of each other. "I have four daughters at home, so that means a lot of arts and crafts."
