Career

SC Heerenveen

Sinkgraven started playing football with MVV Alcides from his hometown Meppel. He ended up in the youth academy of SC Heerenveen. Sinkgraven had a breakthrough season in 2013/14 playing 17 games while starting five of them. He made his debut in the 2-2 draw against Roda JC Kerkrade on 18 January 2014 by replacing Hakim Ziyech. On 28 March 2014, he extended his contract until the summer of 2017.[1]

Ajax

On 30 January 2015, it was announced that Sinkgraven was transferred to Ajax for a fee of 7 million euros, making him the clubs most expensive acquisition since Miralem Sulejmani, who had also made the transfer to Ajax from Heerenveen.[2] Sinkgraven signed a five and a half year-contract with the club and was given the number 8 shirt previously worn by Lerin Duarte, who was sent on a 6-month loan spell to Heerenveen in return.[3] Sinkgraven's first goal for Ajax during the 2014–15 season was actually an own goal converted in the 4–1 loss on 22 November 2014 in Amsterdam while still playing for Heerenveen.[4] He made his debut for the first team of Ajax in the starting lineup on 5 February 2015 in the 1–0 home loss to AZ.[5]
