Ajax eye Dave Vos, Farioli’s assistant, as possible successor to Heitinga | OneFootball

The period after Farioli has been difficult for Ajax. The Dutch club is in fourth place in the Eredivisie after 12 rounds, 11 points behind leaders PSV Eindhoven, and in the Champions League, they have yet to earn a single point after four matches.

This disappointing performance led to the dismissal of John Heitinga from the position of coach and, in the search for a successor, the Amsterdam club is said to have targeted a well-known name who is currently working for FC Porto.

According to the Dutch press, Ajax officials have included Dave Vos—one of the assistant coaches of Francesco Farioli—on the list of possible replacements for Heitinga. The Dutch coach, aged 42, spent more than ten years at Ajax over two different periods, managed the B team in 2022/23 and 2023/24, and last season was part of the Italian's coaching staff.

According to A BOLA, FC Porto has not received any contact in this regard, so for now, the interest in Dave Vos is only at an exploratory stage, along with other alternatives.
