Yah's first pro deal will initially keep him at Ajax until June 30, 2022 and an option for an extra season has been included in the contract.
The Jong Ajax starlet has been struggling with an injury since August, limiting his appearances in the Keuken Kampioen Divisie to only four matches this term.
The Dutch-Nigerian is comfortable playing as a central midfielder, defensive midfielder and central defender.
"Yes, you have to think realistically. I am now injured and hope that I can be back on the field as soon as possible.," Yah said to Ajax's official website.
"Then I can show that I belong to Ajax. If all goes well, I will train with the group again in three weeks I want to get fit again first.
"I give everything, every day. I'm texting a lot with my physiotherapists to ask what I should do or what could be done better."
