    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    The report adds that Bouwman is part of the next lineage of 'Dutch defensive gems destined for stardom'. If all these footballing giants are interested in signing the 6ft 2in defender, the Netherlands Under-18 international must be a prodigious talent.

  • DID YOU KNOW?

    The Haarlem-born player joined Ajax in 2018 and made his debut for Jong Ajax, Ajax's second team, in the 2023-24 season. After making 15 appearances for them, the youngster, who has a Dutch father and a Jamaican-English mother, has graduated to the first team.

    WHAT NEXT?

    Transfer speculation aside, Bouwman will likely be focusing on getting as much game time with the Dutch giants this season. More first-team minutes could come his way on Saturday when Ajax host PEC Zwolle in the Eredivisie.
