New Leadership Developments at Ajax

omidbasir- On Tuesday, Jordi Cruijff announced a new head coach for Jong Ajax. The football community is curious about the future of the first team as well, following the revelation of who will succeed Fred Grim as head coach. There are mixed opinions on whether this choice is a sound one.

The newly appointed head coach for Jong Ajax is Óscar García, a familiar face to technical director Jordi Cruijff from their time together at Maccabi Tel Aviv. García, alongside three compatriots, will lead the reserve team as they aim to cultivate new talent for the first team.

As for the first team, Cruijff faces one remaining challenge: identifying a new manager for the squad at the Johan Cruijff ArenA. Currently, Fred Grim serves as the interim head coach for the remainder of the season, but it is anticipated that he will not continue in this position next season.

In a recent match against Utrecht, NEC faced significant difficulties. The visitors took an early lead through a swift counterattack, exposing the home defense’s vulnerabilities. Just before halftime, Gjivay Zechiël further compounded the hosts’ troubles by scoring the second goal.
