TOP STORIES - Dutch chief aims to stick with Ajax Amsterdam
Marc Overmars insists he is happy to stay at Ajax after being linked with a return to his former club Arsenal to replace Edu as the north London giants’ technical director. Last month, reports stated that Arsenal’s owners had Marc on their wishlist to take over from Edu, who faced heavy criticism in the summer.
Overmars, who spent three campaigns at Arsenal as a player and helped the side win the Premier League and FA Cup double back in 1998, has been the director of football at de Joden since 2012.
Edu, meantime, returned to the Emirates two years ago as the club’s first-ever technical director but fans have been unhappy with his decision to spend heavily on inexperienced players.
But Marc insists that while he has had the chance to leave Ajax, he is interested in remaining with the Eredivisie champions.
"As I’ve said before a number of times we’re really enjoying ourselves. We’re moving in the right direction. The four of us form good management and that’s important." He told Ajax TV.
"We’re like a family, we’re close. And that’s important too. And who knows, we might have some good news soon. I’m not getting any younger. I’ve been offered the opportunity to go elsewhere too.
"That’s what happens and it’s always good to consider a move. But then I just think about how well things are going here. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. If your old shoes are still comfy, keep wearing them."
