Ajax
Bazoer was acquired by Ajax as a free transfer from rival Eredivisie club PSV on 16 November 2012. He had been linked with a move to the Premier League with Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City and Newcastle United being mentioned, but opted to sign with Ajax instead. No transfer fee was necessary, as the young defender was under age. However it was declared by the KNVB that Bazoer would not be eligible for the first team of Ajax until after his 16th birthday. Unable to make his debut in the 2012–13 season for the first team due to the KNVB ruling, he played for Jong Ajax in the Beloften Eredivisie, as well as participating in the 2013 Copa Amsterdam with Ajax A1.
On 29 June 2013, he made his debut for Ajax during a pre-season friendly against SDC Putten. Bazoer came on as a second-half substitute, with the match ending in a 4–1 win in favor of Ajax. Bazoer made his professional debut in the Eerste Divisie for Jong Ajax, in the teams season opener against Telstar on 5 August 2013, a match they won 2–0 in the team's first ever match in the second division of Dutch football. On 4 September 2013 it was announced that Bazoer was amongst the 22 players who were registered by Frank de Boer for Ajax's 2013–14 UEFA Champions League campaign. On 15 February 2015, Bazoer scored his first goal for Ajax in a 4-2 win over FC Twente. On 19 February 2015, Bazoer made his full European debut in a 1-0 win over Legia Warsaw in the Europa League.
VfL Wolfsburg
On 14 December 2016, VfL Wolfsburg announced that Bazoer had signed a contract with the Lower Saxony club through 30 June 2021. He will transfer in the upcoming Winter Transfer period. The reported transfer fee was 12 million euro. He made his VfL Wolfsburg debut in the Bundesliga game versus TSG Hoffenheim on the 12th of February 2017.
Youth
Bazoer has represented the Netherlands at various youth levels. He participated in the 2012 UEFA European Under-17 Championship, helping to contribute to the Netherlands' second consecutive continental title in that age group by defeating Germany 5–4 on penalties in the final, after extra time following a 1–1 deadlock.
On 4 January 2013, the Curaçao Football Federation expressed an interest in calling up Bazoer to represent the Curaçao U-20 team for the 2013 CONCACAF U-20 Championship in Mexico. Bazoer was eligible due to his age and heritage, and this would not have conflicted with his decision to play for the Netherlands given the player's age but the offer was turned down by his agents, and Bazoer remained in Amsterdam.
Senior
Bazoer received his first call up to the senior Netherlands team in October 2015 to replace the injured Davy Klaassen, and again on 6 November 2015 for friendlies against Wales and Germany. He made his senior debut as a late substitute against Wales on 13 November 2015.
