The football capital of the Netherlands
Amsterdam is of course the capital of the Netherlands and still manages to keep the record champion of professional football in the capital. In many other Western European countries such as Bayern Munich in Germany, Juventus in Italy, Saint-Etienne in France and Manchester United in England you can see that they keep this title out of their capital, but in the Netherlands AFC Ajax has stood out in terms of trophy cabinet for decades. . AFC Ajax is currently the only professional club from Amsterdam, but of course this was not the case in the past.

AFC Ajax: the advance through Europe
Everyone in the Netherlands is of course familiar with AFC Ajax. With its 34 national titles, 20 KNVB Cups and 11 European Cup victories, the club is the leader in Dutch football. The club was founded in 1900 and became national champion for the first time 18 years later.
AFC Ajax was in the first golden period of Dutch football in the 1970s. In this period Johan Cruijff introduced the concept of total football as a mastermind and turned the football world upside down. From 1971 this led to three consecutive European Cup 1 victories and to two World Cup final places for the Dutch national team in '74 and '78. Bring memories of this period into your home now with Walljar 's Ajax posters and hang the heroes of the past on your wall.
Back at the top
The second golden period came in the 1990s when the team won the Champions League with Louis van Gaal as coach and mostly self-trained players. After this period, money became more and more important and it is increasingly difficult for a club in a small league to work their way to the top. Yet this international success is still possible because AFC Ajax always produces great talents with its youth academy. This is evident from the successful European seasons in 2003, 2017 and 2019.
The youth has the future
AFC Ajax has produced many of the greatest footballers from the Netherlands over the years. Dutch football skyrocketed in the 1970s and since then AFC Ajax has produced international stars such as Cruijff, Neeskens, Van Basten, Bergkamp, Seedorf, Sneijder, Van der Vaart, Frenkie de Jong and Matthijs de Ligt. The own youth academy has always been the lifeblood of the club and this will never change.
Professional football in Amsterdam
Sometimes people wonder how it is possible that Amsterdam only has one professional club while Rotterdam has three. This was not always the case. In 1972 the clubs DWTS, Blauw-Wit and the Volewijckers merged to form the club FC Amsterdam. This club was active in the Eredivisie until 1982, when it went bankrupt. In the ten years that FC Amsterdam was active, it produced four internationals; Jan Jongbloed, Nico Jansen, Chris Dekker and Heini Otto.
