Leonne Stentler has lashed out hard at Ajax. The football analyst, who played international matches for the Orange Lionesses during her active career, read with increasing astonishment the press statement of the team from Amsterdam about the departure of Marc Overmars.
The director of football affairs had to resign because of cross-border messages to several female colleagues. Yet Ajax called him ‘probably the best football director Ajax has ever had’. “We are not saying that Jeroen Rietbergen has been the best band leader of The Voice of Holland?” Stentler reacts fiercely to the NOS. “You are also a good director if you treat your employees well and that is not the case.”
In any case, the analyst believes that there is a discussion going on that does not need to be had at all. “It is typical how it is dealt with. Many people say that we have to wait for the facts, but Overmars has simply confessed to guilt and has resigned. That is not a discussion, is it? That we should doubt what is transgressive in a position of power from Overmars, I don’t understand that at all.”
