Ajax Sack Coach Schreuder

Ajax Amsterdam have taken the “painful but necessary decision” by sacking coach Alfred Schreuder after a 1-1 home draw with relegation-threatened Volendam in the Dutch league.

Gatekeepers News reports that the result left the defending champions in fifth place in the table, seven points behind leaders and bitter rivals Feyenoord.

On the club’s website, Ajax Chief Executive Edwin van der Sar said, “This is a painful decision, but it’s necessary. Regardless of the good start to the season, we lost a lot of unnecessary points.

“The football itself was precarious too. We gave Alfred our time and trust to change the way things were going.

“It became clear to us that he could not change the tide.”

Ajax have failed to win a single match in the league since October 22 and were knocked out of the Champions League in the group stage.

Schreuder joined Ajax from Club Brugge last summer to replace Erik ten Hag who Manchester United job.
