Ajax and Bayern Munich have agreed on the transfer of Ryan Gravenberch on Monday, with the 20-year-old midfielder signing a five-year deal until 2027.

Gravenberch had a contract at Ajax until mid-2023. According to Ajax, the transfer fee is 18.5 million euros (19.4 million U.S. dollars), which could run up to 24 million euros including bonuses.

Last month, Bayern also signed Noussair Mazraoui from Ajax. The 24-year-old right back moved to Munich on a free transfer and signed a contract until 2026 with the German record champions.

A product of the Ajax youth academy, Gravenberch made his debut in the first team on September 23, 2018 against PSV. He played 103 official matches for Ajax in which he scored 12 goals.

Gravenberch captured the Dutch championship three times with Ajax, in 2019, 2021 and 2022, and the Dutch Cup in 2019 and 2021. He already collected 10 caps for the Netherlands and scored one goal for his country.

"When the offer came from FC Bayern, I didn't have to think about it for long," Gravenberch told on his new club's website. "FC Bayern are one of the biggest clubs around; players from all over the world want to play for this club. I'm coming to Munich to win lots of titles."
