The first transfer from Ajax is fixed – according to BILD information, the second should follow soon!
On Tuesday afternoon, FC Bayern announced the first newcomer for the coming season: Noussair Mazraoui (24) signed a contract on Säbener Straße until 2026.
Mazraoui enthuses: “For me, this is the biggest club in Europe! Bayern always plays Champions League. I want to win big titles. Not just the Bundesliga, but also the Champions League.”
The Moroccan (Dutch-born) comes from Amsterdam on a free transfer! A transfer coup by boss Oliver Kahn (52), sports director Hasan Salihamidzic (45) and coach Julian Nagelsmann (34), who convinced the right-back to change in a phone call.
Mazraoui in the club announcement: “I had a good feeling right from the first talks with FC Bayern. FC Bayern have just become German champions for the tenth time in a row and will also be among the contenders to win the Champions League again next year. I chose this club because I can win the biggest titles here.”
Among other things, the right-back decided against Barcelona!
Salihamidzic: “He had offers from all over Europe and chose us because we have a clear plan with him and want to achieve big goals with him. Noussair is a player who puts a lot of pressure down the right offensively. We also like his mentality very much: He burns for this challenge at FC Bayern.”
After nine years, Mazraoui leaves Ajax (professional since 2018, 137 competitive games, ten goals). And a second Ajax gem is to follow…

BILD knows: Mazraoui colleague Ryan Gravenberch (20) should also sign soon!
According to BILD information, Ajax and Bayern have come much closer in terms of transfer fees in the past few days. The Dutch initially wanted a fixed 35 million euros, now the two clubs are said to have agreed on around 25 million plus bonuses for the Dutch midfield jewel (contract until 2023 in Amsterdam).
The Gravenberch change would also be a transfer coup…
