Ajax announced that forward Julian Rijkhoff has signed a new contract running until 30 June 2028, with an option for an additional season. The club also confirmed that Rijkhoff will spend the 2026‑27 campaign on loan at FC Andorra, the team that competes in Spain’s Segunda División, and that Andorra holds an option to make the move permanent in the summer of 2027.
