Ajax have reached an undisclosed agreement with FC Volendam for the transfer of goalkeeper Jeroen Verhoeven to the Amsterdam club.

Verhoeven will sign a three-year contract with Ajax, provided he passes a medical tomorrow, Volendam confirmed on their website today.

The 29-year-old, who had one year remaining on his deal with relegated Volendam, will replace Dennis Gentenaar, who earlier this summer left Amsterdam for promoted VVV Venlo.

Verhoeven, a former member of the Ajax youth academy, will be the third-choice goalkeeper behind Maarten Stekelenburg and Kenneth Vermeer.

He joined Volendam in 2003 and established himself as the club's number one over the past four years, making 152 league appearances.
