Ajax CEO Alex Kroes says the club’s board is pushing him out with no justification
NL TimesAjax CEO and executive board director Alex Kroes said he feels that his suspension by Ajax for insider trading is a case of the club's supervisory board members trying to push him out. “Five or six lawyers have looked through all his emails and messages,” Chairman Michael van Praag told Ajax fans at a scheduled meeting, ANP reported. And how can I explain to our staff that we are continuing to work with Kroes while we fired Marc Overmars for sexual harassment?” Van Praag acknowledged that there is some tension between Kroes and the supervisory board. For example, Van Praag knows that Kroes thinks the supervisory board failed in its supervision of Sven Mislintat, the dismissed technical being investigated for dodgy transfer practices involving 100 million euros last summer.
