Ruud Gullit thinks that Frank de Boer will become Ajax's new trainer. He tells this on Monday evening Rondo on Ziggo Sports. John van 't Schip will in principle stop as a trainer after this season to take up a technical position at Ajax, meaning that the Amsterdam team will have to look for a new head coach.

Last week the NOS It is known that there are currently three names circulating at Ajax who could become Ajax's new trainer: Dave Vos, Pepijn Lijnders and Pascal Jansen.

However, De Boer is also still an option, according to Gullit. “Rumor has it that Frank de Boer will be the new trainer. That rumor is going around in Amsterdam,” he knows.

A trainer who has already been offered to the capital is Graham Potter. As later in Rondo When the issue of Ajax's new trainer is discussed again, table guest Jan Mulder shows that he thinks the Englishman is suitable.

“I think he's okay. Things did not go well at Chelsea, but that is also due to that club,” said Mulder. Then Gullit, who is sitting next to him, responds.

“No, that's not because of that. He went to a club at the highest level for the first time. Even Potter was mentioned at Manchester United, as Ten Hag's successor. Then I think: how is that possible? I can't imagine this either.”

“I hope Van 't Schip will stay, but I think it will be De Boer,” Gullit continues. Youri Mulder and Arthur Numan join him. “There are few choices,” says Numan. “And of course he is free.”

As a trainer, De Boer became national champion four times with Ajax. He then worked as a trainer at Inter, Crystal Palace, Atlanta United, the Dutch national team and Al-Jazira, but those employments were not very successful.
