“I come to Ajax every day with a smile on my face. I really enjoy training here. It really is my club. It’s going well and I’m happy to be here,” she says proudly. Tolhoek signed her professional contract with Ajax’s first team in 2023 and she has already scored in the Premier League and played in the Champions League.
As soon as she enters the Ajax training field for the warm-up, Tolhoek joins big names such as Sherida Spitse and Romeé Leuchter. And Tolhoek tries to learn as much as possible from those players with tons of experience. “Especially my goal-orientedness. I am a striker, so ultimately I want to score a lot. The running actions are also very important, because that way you can run away as a striker. And I want to go for the ball 100 percent every match. When I see the goal , I want to score.”
