Ajax and Olivier Aertssen have agreed on a new contract. The 18-year-old defender's new commitment runs retroactively from 1 January 2023 to 30 June 2025, with an option to extend for another year. His old contract ran until mid-2023.
It is the ideal place to relax or have some quality time with family: in a boat on the water. With Olivier and his father Gaico we choose the open water in their new hometown of Almere. The eighteen-year-old Ajax defender joined the club's youth academy in 2019 and made his debut in the first team in the cup match with FC Den Bosch. "On the water, the conversations are always about football."
