Anton Gaaei, born 19 November 2002 (age 23), is a Danish right-back whose senior career has become centred on Ajax. His current market value is around £6m, according to Transfermarkt.
Ajax is where the substance of his career now lies. Across three league seasons he has made 76 appearances and scored five goals, with his most productive domestic campaign coming in 2024-2025, when he scored three times in 25 league matches. That is enough to make the Amsterdam spell more than a developmental stop, even if he is still a player being shaped rather than a finished article.
He has remained involved in 2025-2026, making 26 Eredivisie appearances and scoring once. Across all competitions for Ajax that season, he has reached 40 appearances and three goals, including seven Champions League outings and a goal in that competition. For a young full-back, regular minutes at that level are a fair indication of where he stands in the squad.
Gaaei’s career to this point is straightforward: a Danish defender now established as a recurring first-team option at Ajax, with his best football and most relevant work still tied to that club.
