FC Twente is on the verge of selling Youri Regeer to Ajax, as confirmed by general manager Dominique Scholten. Ajax approached FC Twente because Devyne Rensch is moving to AS Roma. Ajax has a buyback option of approximately 4.5 million euros, after Regeer moved to Twente for 900,000 euros one and a half years ago. FC Twente sees this as an opportunity and is exploring options to replace Regeer.

Ajax has activated the buy-back clause for Youri Regeer on Monday evening. The club is hoping to bring the 21-year-old midfielder to the Johan Cruijff Arena soon. Regeer was in Amsterdam on Tuesday to finalize the details of his new Ajax contract, which is expected to be a multi-year agreement. The transfer is in the final stages.

Youri Regeer is on his way to Ajax. The 21-year-old midfielder is in Amsterdam to finalize contract negotiations with Ajax. Regeer is considered the successor to Devyne Rensch, who is leaving for AS Roma. He is no longer training with FC Twente, as the transfer to Ajax is in the final stages. Ajax is using a buy-back option of approximately 4.5 million euros to bring Regeer back to the Johan Cruijff Arena. He is expected to sign a multi-year contract in Amsterdam.

Cristian Willaert, speaking on ESPN's Tekengeld, stated that Francesco Farioli does not view Youri Regeer as a right-back, which is causing uncertainty for the FC Twente player. According to Willaert, Ajax sees Regeer as a potential replacement for Devyne Rensch. He suggested that the interest in Regeer might be part of a broader strategy by Alex Kroes. Regeer, who played as both a midfielder and right-back in Ajax's youth teams, transitioned to a midfielder role at FC Twente, although he occasionally featured as a right-back. Willaert expressed that Regeer is hesitant about joining Ajax for the right-back position due to Farioli's apparent disinterest and is still in negotiations. It is possible that Ajax might propose for Regeer to concentrate on the right-back position for six months, with potential opportunities in midfield emerging in the summer. Furthermore, the interest in Regeer could be a strategic move to encourage other clubs, such as Panathinaikos, to reduce their asking prices.
