Ajax Camps Kerkyra, Launching in Corfu, Greece This Summer. Ajax Coaching Academy is proud to announce the launch of Ajax Camps Kerkyra, a premier youth football camp taking place in Corfu, Greece, this summer. In partnership with Only4stars ISEC, these elite camps will bring the world-renowned Ajax training philosophy to the beautiful island of Corfu for six consecutive weeks starting July 7, 2025.

Ajax and CF Pachuca have extended their partnership until 2030. The two football clubs have been connected since the summer of 2022. The main goal of this collaboration is the exchange of knowledge in the areas of talent development and scouting talent in Mexico.

Ajax and Como 1907 have joined forces in a partnership. The three-year agreement will take effect on 1 January 2025. For Ajax, this partnership represents an important opportunity to strengthen its global football network.

Ajax takes the next step in expanding its international football network. Al Bidda SC from Qatar is added to the network, which also includes CF Pachuca (Mexico), Gamba Osaka (Japan), Athlético Paranaense (Brazil), and Sharjah FC (UAE). In addition, Ajax will use the football knowledge and coaches of the Ajax Coaching Academy to further contribute to the development of youth players through various other activities.

During a Club Network Summit, Ajax exchanged knowledge and experiences with all international partner clubs. The two-day Summit was held at de Toekomst and in the Johan Cruijff ArenA. Ajax aims to recognise, develop, and improve talents together with the clubs.

Ajax and the Japanese club Gamba Osaka will start a strategic collaboration to develop Japan's talent identification and development initiatives. For Ajax, this collaboration is a significant chance to strengthen the worldwide football network and identify young talents in Japanese football. "Considering our goal of finding talent in all places of the world, Japan is a very interesting market", Marijn Beuker says.

Ajax and Gamba Osaka are delighted to announce a strategic partnership to advance talent identification and development initiatives in Japan. This exclusive collaboration is scheduled to extend over an initial three-year period.

Ajax and partner club Sharjah FC will continue their partnership. Both parties agreed on a three-year contract extension. The partnership started in 2020. Four experienced Ajax coaches are helping to improve the local youth academy in the United Arab Emirates.

A dream came true for Vera Sweers when she heard she was allowed to join Ajax’s Talent Team U16. The talented teen grew up in Spain and Dubai, where she first learned about the Ajax philosophy. Vera’s transfer is a first because never before has a player from the United Arab Emirates transferred to the Amsterdam-based youth academy.
