Ajax receives a transfer fee of €17.25 million for the 19-year-old, which could rise to €22.75 million through bonuses.
Kluivert had a contract in Amsterdam until 2019 and Ajax were trying to extend it, but the winger set his mind on a departure and has now signed a contract until 2023 in Rome.
In 44 league matches for Ajax, Kluivert scored twelve goals and nine assists. He joins fellow Dutchmen Rick Karsdorp and Kevin Strootman in Italy.
