Latest update:
Ajax wants to promote Kelvin de Lang from head of scouting to technical manager, it is reported Football International Saturday morning. As a result, the 43-year-old Amsterdammer will be given a new position in the Johan Cruijff ArenA after just over six months. De Lang must help Ajax through the transfer summer together with football director Marijn Beuker.
Journalist Tim van Duijn will release the news on Saturday. De Lang and Beuker will be supported next summer by commissioner Danny Blind and technical advisor Louis van Gaal. The struggling Ajax expects a difficult transfer summer and therefore wants to face it with a decent line-up.
De Lang, who has a past as a youth scout and player supervisor at Manchester City, has only been employed by Ajax since August. The Amsterdammer was appointed head of scouting, but has temporarily acted as his successor in technical matters since the dismissal of technical director Sven Mislintat.
More soon.
