context_page_description: Quincy Anton Promes is a Dutch professional footballer who plays as a forward for Eredivisie club Ajax and the Netherlands national team.
  Promes started his career with Twente in 2011 where he spent three seasons before moving to Russian club Spartak Moscow in the summer of 2014. Promes won his first major honour in 2017 as Spartak were crowned Russian Premier League champions. He was named Footballer of the Year in Russia in 2017 and finished the 2017–18 season as Russian Premier League top scorer. In total, he amassed 135 appearances and scored 66 goals over a four-year stint with Spartak. He signed for Spanish club Sevilla in 2018 for a reported €20 million but struggled for form there. Promes returned to his native Netherlands in the summer of 2019 by signing for his boyhood club Ajax.
  He won his first senior cap for Netherlands in March 2014 in a friendly match against France in a 2–0 defeat.
context_section_description: On 24 June 2019, it was announced that Promes was moving to Eredivisie side AFC Ajax on a five-year deal, with a basic transfer fee of €15.7 million, which could rise to €17.2 million with add-ons. Promes made his debut for Ajax against PSV in the 2019 Johan Cruyff Shield on 27 July 2019, and was replaced in the 59' by Hakim Ziyech in Ajax's 2–0 win.
  He scored 8 goals in his opening 12 league matches of the season which included a hat-trick against Fortuna Sittard and 2 goals in the opening 2 matches of the Champions League group stage. On 5 November, Promes inflicted an own goal from Tammy Abraham and scored later giving his side a 2–1 lead away from home against Chelsea. Ajax would extend their lead to 4–1, but Ajax were reduced to 9 men and ultimately Chelsea made a comeback to make it 4–4.
