Career

Ajax

Acquired by Ajax in 2007 as a free transfer from then partner club HFC Haarlem, Kramer worked his way up from the youth ranks of the Amsterdam club, Ajax then signed the young goalkeeper to a one-year contract on 1 July 2012. Kramer started the 2012–13 keeping for Jong Ajax, the Amsterdam reserve squad, playing in the Beloften Eredivisie. He was then called up to play for the first team on 8 April 2013, following a red card suspension to Ajax first keeper Kenneth Vermeer against Heracles Almelo a day prior to the announcement. With Vermeer suspended, Jasper Cillessen was the next goalkeeper in line, but with then third keeper Mickey van der Hart sidelined due to an injury, Kramer found himself on the bench as Ajax back-up keeper, for the duration of Vermeer's suspension.[1] He was given the number 45 shirt while appearing for Ajax first team, a year in which Ajax would win their third consecutive national title, and 32nd overall.[2]

On 6 June 2013, it was announced that Kramer had signed a one-year contract with Heerenveen, becoming the Friesian club's third choice keeper for the 2013–14 Eredivisie season.[3]

On 10 July 2014, Kramer signed a three-year deal with Eerste Divisie side FC Eindhoven.[4]
