Ajax would have thrown a line at several trainers, including Marcelo Gallardo. It reports that General Journal. After successful years at the Argentinian River Plate, Gallardo would be ready for a step to Europe.
Since the resignation of trainer Alfred Schreuder, John Heitinga has taken over the honors as interim trainer at Ajax’s first team. It is not yet clear for how long that will be. It General Journal writes that this mainly has to do with how the search for a permanent successor for Schreuder is proceeding.
The management of Ajax has thrown out the necessary lines, as can be read. ‘To Marcelo Gallardo, for example, who, after successful years at the Argentinian River Plate, aspires to move to Europe’, according to the newspaper, which does not mention any other options.
Heitinga may also be an option as head coach
The medium does indicate that it may take quite a while before Ajax has found a new head coach. ‘The expectation is that Ajax will need at least a few more weeks to appoint a trainer for the coming years. Possibly even longer.”
Heitinga has been told by Ajax that it cannot be ruled out that he will be the club’s interim trainer for the rest of the season. In addition, he can also ‘seduce the doubting club management to a final internal solution’ in the coming weeks.
