Ajax Orlando Hire Ex-Oranje Star 28/01/04
Former Ajax and Holland hero Wim Suurbier has been tabbed as the first technical director in Ajax Orlando’s history.
"Combining the gold standard Ajax training methods and the growing American interest in soccer, Ajax Orlando will be the leading soccer establishment in the United States and I'm proud to be a part of that," he told the club website.
"Wim's experience within Ajax and his knowledge of what this position entails made him the obvious choice as Ajax Orlando's Technical Director," said club chief Mark Dillon. "He knows Ajax and his presence in Orlando is just one more indication of our commitment to adopting the same high standards of excellence that have been set by AFC Ajax for the last one hundred years in Amsterdam."
A member of three European Cup winners at Ajax and two World Cup finalists with the Oranje, Suurbier also played and coached in the NASL.
