All four of the young talents have already made their first-team debuts but were not officially moved into the Ajax squad.

On Thursday, Ajax confirmed that all four would be promoted permanently to the first-team. Erik ten Hag said on the Ajax website, “You have to earn opportunities and these players have done so in the past period. They show the potential to contribute to Ajax 1 and therefore they are transferred to the selection.”

Ekkelenkamp (21) has so far made eight first-team appearances. Gravenberch (17) has two, Lang (20) has five, while Dest (18) made his debut this season and has been a key member of the squad.
