Ajax confirms Klaassen new contract until mid-2019

Ajax announced on its website. The previous commitment of the 22-year-old midfielder ran until the summer of 2018.

The contract extension Klaassen does not come as a surprise. He said last month that it agrees with Ajax on upgrading its commitment.

The Orange International gave to have the feeling of "not nearly" to be ready for a new step and underscores those words Monday.

"A very good moment to draw again. I'm very happy. I did not hesitate when the contract extension was offered. Ajax really is my club. I'm playing here for so long and I have not the idea I want to leave. A very logical step for me so. "

Coach Frank de Boer is also pleased with the new contract for Klaassen. "It is all very well that guys like Davy receive this recognition. I think every coach likes Davy in his selection."

Klaassen made on November 22, 2011 his debut in the first team of Ajax in the Champions League match against Olympique Lyon. He played 108 official matches so far, scoring 25 times.
