A day after the championship, Ajax announced the arrival of Alfred Schreuder. The 49-year-old coach succeeds Erik ten Hag who leaves for Manchester United. Schreuder signs a contract in Amsterdam until 2024.
“Becoming head coach at Ajax is an honor and a great opportunity for me, which I grab with both hands,” says Schreuder on the Ajax website. “I also really like to return, because in the year and a half that I worked at Ajax I had a great time at the club.”
“I would like to win prizes in Amsterdam with a team that plays attractive football,” continues Schreuder, who has been at the helm of Club Brugge since January. “With a good balance between experienced top players and the many great talents. But first I want to finish the season successfully with Club Brugge. Saying goodbye to the main prize is very important and I will do everything I can to achieve that.”
