Ajax add Dave Vos, Farioli’s assistant, to Heitinga succession list | OneFootball

The period after Farioli has been difficult for Ajax. The Dutch club is in fourth place in the Eredivisie after the 12th round, with an 11-point deficit compared to the leader PSV Eindhoven, and in the Champions League, they still haven't earned any points after four matches.

This disappointing performance led to the dismissal of John Heitinga from the coaching position, and in the search for a successor, the Amsterdam club has reportedly considered a well-known name currently working with FC Porto.

According to Dutch media, Ajax officials have included Dave Vos – one of the assistant coaches of Francesco Farioli – on the list of possible replacements for Heitinga. The 42-year-old Dutch coach spent more than ten years at Ajax, in two different periods, coached the B team in 2022/23 and 2023/24, and last season, he was part of the Italian's technical staff.

According to A BOLA, FC Porto has not been contacted in this regard, so for now, the interest in Dave Vos is only in the study phase, along with other alternatives.
