Van Basten wont coach Ajax
The Dutch football federation president Henk Kesler said he would not allow national coach Marco van Basten to coach Ajax in the near future, the De Telegraaf newspaper reported on Monday.
According to Dutch press, Ajax, who are looking for a replacement for their Chelsea-bound coach Henk Ten Cate, could turn to van Basten in a double role as national coach and Ajax boss.
Kesler ruled out this scenario. "Even for 100 million euros, we will not accept it (that van Basten coaches Ajax)," said Kesler. "The coach cannot do two things at once."
Van Basten's contract ends in July next year after the Euro 2008 finals in Austria and Switzerland.
