The pair become the latest in a long line of players to have made the step up at the Urban Warriors of late, after Zaakir Allie was handed his first professional contract with the club earlier in March, while forward Tashreeq Matthews earned his promotion in February.
Before that, Kiyaam Bull and Leo Thethani also graduated from the Academy, and the Cape Town giants have now confirmed the promotions of defender Abrahams and midfielder Koopstadt.
Everyone at Ajax Cape Town would like to congratulate Keenan and Riyaaz and we are excited to watch them take the next step in their respective footballing careers.'
