The versatile centre-back is expected to sign his contract papers next week.
Brighton & Hove Albion were the first Premier League club to show interest in the player.
The 23-year-old was keen to remain at Ajax but had a change of mind after he was informed of the decision of the club to sell him.
He scored one goal in 25 league appearances for the former European champions last season.
