Dies Janse, born on 17 January 2006 (age 20), is a Dutch central defender with Ajax. A commanding 6ft 5in (1.96m), he has the build for the position, which is a useful starting point rather than a career in itself.
His most productive league spell so far came at FC Groningen in 2025-26, when he scored two goals in 31 appearances. For a young centre-half, that was a decent body of senior football rather than just a few minutes borrowed from the bench.
In 2026-27, Janse made one league appearance for Jong Ajax and one for Ajax, wearing squad number 36. His market value is around £765,000, according to Transfermarkt.
Janse remains a developing Dutch defender whose career has moved from Ajax’s pathway into senior football at Groningen, then back into the Ajax structure. At this stage, the outline is clear enough: tall, young, and still building his senior record.
