He is the son of a former footballer in Arend Regeer, who played for several Dutch clubs like Noordwijk, Zandvoort, Telstar and Noordwijk in his career. Incidentally, Arend was also a midfielder and represented Telstar in the Eredivisie. Arend has transitioned into a coaching role after retiring from football and managed Ado Den Haag's women's team. He even served as a high school teacher at Albeda College from 2019-2021, and now works at the Nova College, along with doing part-time coaching.

He played for Rijnsburgse Boys' academy in Rijnsburg from 2012-2015 before joining Ado den Haag's youth academy at the age of 12.

Youri Regeer Career

Let us now have a detailed look at Youri Regeer's emerging career. Regeer has been obsessed with football all throughout his life because of his father's association with the beautiful game and has had to work extremely hard to make his presence felt in the Eredivisie. During his career so far, the young midfielder has been forced to adapt to different clubs and environments where he's played. He definitely had to tweak his game a bit to make himself comfortable with Ajax's playing style.

Club Career

Regeer joined Ajax's youth academy in 2017, but had to work hard to earn a call-up to the senior team. He played for the Jong Ajax (reserve team) from 2020-2023, making nearly 100 appearances for them. Regeer's senior debut for Ajax was under Erik ten Hag, when he started in a KNVB Cup match against BVV Barendrecht on 15 December 2021. His Eredivisie debut came on 30 April 2022 against PEC Zwolle. However, opportunities dried up for the midfielder after that, leading him to switch teams and join FC Twente in 2023 for regular playing time.

Regeer didn't take much time to unleash his A-game after joining the Eredivisie side, impressing as a tenacious figure for them in midfield as well as in the right-back role. He made 65 appearances for FC Twente in around a year and a half, scoring two goals and providing five assists for them. His heroics for Twente led Ajax to re-sign him in January 2025 by activating a buy-back clause that was inserted in his initial move to Twente.

Regeer was only able to make four appearances for Ajax in the 2024/25 Eredivisie, but managed to score a goal in their 1-1 draw against Sparta Rotterdam. He has 12 appearances for Ajax in his career so far, but will look to become a regular feature in their midfield going forward.

International Career

Youri Regeer is yet to make his debut for the Netherlands national football team despite impressing in the Eredivisie for FC Twente and Ajax. However, he has already represented his country at age-group levels and played for all youth teams in his career.
