Ajax reaches agreement with Werder Bremen on loan of Youri Regeer

Ajax has reached a loan agreement with Werder Bremen for midfielder Youri Regeer that includes a purchase option. This decision follows the arrival of Sofyan Amrabat, while the club is also working to loan winger Maher Carrizo to FC Copenhagen.

Ajax has finalized a loan agreement with Werder Bremen for midfielder Youri Regeer, which includes an option for a permanent purchase. This move follows the club's recent acquisition of Sofyan Amrabat, which prompted the decision to allow Regeer to depart. The transfer deadline in Germany is set for Monday evening, providing a short window for the deal to conclude before the Dutch deadline.

Regeer, who rejoined Ajax for 4.5 million euros in early 2025, struggled to maintain a consistent starting role despite previous efforts by interim and new coaches to utilize him as a controlling midfielder. In addition to Regeer's departure, Ajax is reportedly preparing to loan Argentinian forward Maher Carrizo to FC Copenhagen. Carrizo failed to secure a regular spot in the Amsterdam squad following the arrival of further competition on the wings, marking another significant roster adjustment as the club refines its lineup under current leadership.
