Ajax completed their final training session on Friday ahead of the first friendly fixture of pre-season. On Saturday, Míchel Sánchez's side will face Greek opponent Panathinaikos.

Ajax, AS Monaco and Caio Henrique have reached an agreement on the transfer of the left-back to Ajax. The 28-year-old player has signed a contract in Amsterdam that runs until June 30, 2030.

A year ago, supporters at the Johan Cruijff ArenA unknowingly got their first look at a future Ajax player. Caio Henrique featured in the friendly between Ajax and AS Monaco at the Johan Cruijff ArenA. The Brazilian left-back, then still playing for the Ligue 1 side, even provided the assist for Mika Biereth's equaliser. And that is exactly where the new Ajax signing's strength lies. From Monaco to Mokum: here's a brief introduction to our newest addition.
