On 7 February he was invited to leave Ajax for harassing some employees. Today the presentation in Belgium: “I want to turn the page”
Marc Overmars’ new life begins in Antwerp, where he will hold the position of sporting director. Only on 7 February was he invited to resign from Ajax, where he had similar duties, due to a series of inappropriate photos and messages sent to some club employees.
Moved away
–
The management had practically forced him to leave, recognizing the quality of the work done in purely football terms but above all the unsustainable gravity of the situation that had arisen. “It won’t happen again, that’s clear. I’m done with those behaviors and I want to turn the page ”Overmars guaranteed at the presentation press conference in Belgium. “For me now a new chapter begins – he continued – I want to start off on the best foot with everyone. I have to leave behind what happened with Ajax and move on, I will do it here in Antwerp. We didn’t talk too much about the affair during the negotiation “.
Second chance
–
The topic was also addressed by Sven Jacques, director general of Antwerp: “We have dealt with the issue, as adults. We listened to what happened, explaining our values to him. It is important to give a second chance. We did not have specific interviews with the employees who work in the club, but there was only a discussion in management “. Overmars then explained the reasons that led him to accept the Belgian team’s proposal. “After working at Ajax, I would only accept offers from abroad. Both clubs were born from a cricket team, I like to think of this common origin. There are enormous opportunities for growth on the sporting level, profitable transfers are the result of good operations: it is a great challenge and I will immediately get to work, so as to be already operational for the summer market ”concluded the new sporting director.
