Anton Gaaei, born on 19 November 2002 (age 23), is a Danish right-back whose senior career has come to be framed mainly by his work at Ajax. He wears the number 3 shirt and, according to Transfermarkt, is valued at around £6m.
At Ajax, Gaaei has made 76 league appearances over four seasons, scoring five times. His most productive league campaign came in 2024-25, when he scored three goals in 25 appearances – useful output from full-back, rather than something to get carried away about.
His 2026-27 season has already brought a spread of involvement across competitions for Ajax: 16 appearances and three goals in total, including goals in the KNVB Beker, Conference League qualifying and the Champions League. That breadth of usage says plenty about where his career currently sits.
Gaaei’s career is still developing, but Ajax is plainly the main chapter so far. He is a Danish right-back with regular senior minutes, European exposure and a profile built far more in Amsterdam than anywhere else.
