feel ready to leave the Eredivisie club after signing a
contract extension until 2019.
The Dutchman – who won the first of his four international
caps for Netherlands in 2014 – joined the club's youth
academy in 2004 and was handed the captain's armband at
the start of the campaign.
Klaassen, 22, has made 108 appearances for the club and
was keen to extend his stay at the Amsterdam Arena despite
having three years to run on his current deal.
"It is a good moment to extend my contract. I am really
happy with it," he said.
"I didn’t have any doubts when I signed it."
He added: "Ajax is really my club. I have been here for so
long and I don’t want to leave quite yet."
Klaassen has scored five goals in 18 appearances in all
competitions for Ajax this term.
