Donny van de Beek -Early years

Van de Beek began his career as a child at the local Veensche Boys’ academy, where his father, André, had previously played. He joined the Ajax youth academy in August 2014, signing a three-year contract, and was assigned to the D-team.

He advanced through the academy and played in the A1 team’s Supercup victory over the Feyenoord A1 team. On January 27, 2015, he signed a contract extension that would keep him at the club until the middle of 2018.

Van de Beek made his Eerste Divisie debut in January 2015 for Jong Ajax (Ajax’s reserve team) against Sparta Rotterdam. Two months later, manager Frank de Boer called him up to the senior team as an injury replacement for a league match against ADO Den Haag. He was, however, an unused substitute in that game. He was named AFC Ajax Talent of the Future at the end of the 2014-15 season.

Van de Beek was called up to the senior team for a UEFA Europa League match against Scottish club Celtic in November 2015. In the game, in which Ajax won 2-1, he made his European debut. He described his debut as “beautiful,” adding:

“I have taken my duels well. It was of course difficult because the game went back and forth continuously. But I think I did fine.”

Van de Beek made his first team debut three days later in a 2-0 league win over PEC Zwolle. In a 1-1 draw against Norwegian club Molde FK the following month, he scored his first goal for Ajax.

As he scored, his head collided with that of opponent Joona Toivio, causing his left brow to bleed. When asked about the goal, he stated that he would never forget it. The goal earned him the club’s Goal of the Month award as well.

In January 2016, Voetbal International reported that manager De Boer was impressed with Van de Beek and said he would continue to play for the first team “until further notice.”

On February 16, he was officially promoted to the first team following the departures of John Heitinga and Yaya Sanogo. In March, media reports indicated that German club Bayern Munich was interested in signing him.

By the end of the 2015-16 season, he had firmly established himself in the first team and was also regularly appearing for the Ajax under-19 team in the UEFA Youth League. According to the Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona is considering options to secure his services.

Donny van de Beek -Ajax

Van de Beek was included in Ajax’s squad for the UEFA Champions League qualification match against Greek club PAOK at the start of the 2016-17 season by new manager Peter Bosz for a couple of reasons: Van de Beek impressed Bosz during pre-season friendlies in Austria, while Riechedly Bazoer was injured and Nemanja Gudelj was suspended.

He made his Champions League debut against PAOK on July 26th, starting in the 1-1 draw. During the season, he and Abdelhak Nouri were the only players given more than a seven on average by Voetbal International while playing for the reserves.

He was named to the Europa League Team of the Week in November for his performance against Panathinaikos. He was part of a midfield trio that included Nouri and Lasse Schöne. Van de Beek came on in the 70th minute of Ajax’s 2-0 loss to Manchester United in the Europa League final.

The Dutch newspaper Algemeen Dagblad wrote about Van de Beek’s 2017-18 pre-season matches, saying that he had successfully filled the void left by Davy Klaassen’s departure to English club Everton. Tottenham Hotspur, an English club, scouted him in the Netherlands in October. He scored in both legs of the Champions League qualifier against Nice of France.

In the first leg, he equalized in the 36th minute of a 1-1 tie, capitalizing on an error by opposition goalkeeper Yoan Cardinale. He scored in the first half of the 2-2 tie in the second leg. Van de Beek scored a hat-trick in an 8-0 League victory over NAC Breda on November 18. The feat was described as “extra nice” by Ajax captain Jol Veltman.

He appeared 34 times in the league, scoring 11 times and assisting six times. In July 2018, he turned down an offer from Italian club Roma, citing “Ajax is the right place for his development.”

Van de Beek was Ajax’s attacking midfielder in the 2018-19 season, starting almost every match in all competitions as the team won their first league title in five years and unexpectedly qualified for the UEFA Champions League semi-finals. Van de Beek scored against Juventus in the second leg of the quarter-final on April 16 to help his team defeat the Italian champion 3-2 on aggregate.

On May 7, he scored against Tottenham Hotspur in the first leg of the semifinal, leading to Ajax’s 1-0 away victory. Despite this, Ajax was unable to advance to the final, losing the tie on away goals following a 2-3 defeat at home.

Van de Beek scored against Valencia in a 3-0 away win and Chelsea in a 4-4 draw in the 2019-20 Champions League season; however, Ajax was eliminated from the group stage after losing 1-0 at home to Valencia.

In his second season, he did not play in the Premier League at all, though he did play in the Champions League and the EFL Cup. Van de Beek was subbed in for only the third time in twelve Premier League matches in what turned out to be manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s final match, a 4-1 loss at Watford on 20 November 2021, scoring his second and final Premier League goal for the club.

Donny van de Beek-Playing style

Van de Beek is a tactically versatile and hardworking midfielder who can play anywhere on the field. Van de Beek plays primarily as a central or attacking midfielder for Ajax, but he can also play as a defensive midfielder.

According to the Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo, he plays a more offensive role than his teammates on other teams. Van de Beek was described by Goal.com as having “excellent control and a great eye for a pass as he links up with the attack and is dangerous as he makes runs into the box.”

He was compared to Davy Klaassen while playing for the Ajax academy. Van de Beek, on the other hand, rejected the comparison, claiming that he was a player who preferred to keep the ball at his feet. Jol Veltman, a former Ajax captain, described Van de Beek as a player who “works very hard and can play between the lines.”
