This Tuesday, Ajax Amsterdam formalized the departure of its general manager Edwin Van der Sar on his Twitter account: "You embraced the role of general manager with the same vision that defined and punctuated your days as a player, perhaps we read in the warm press release from Ajax. We are eternally grateful to you. Once an Ajax legend, always an Ajax legend! ".
The legendary Ajax goalkeeper from 1990 to 1999 joined the Lancers in 2012 first as marketing director and then general manager in 2016. In seven years, Van der Sar's track record in management has been rich: three titles Dutch champion (2019, 2021, 2022), two Cups (2019, 2021) and a national Supercup (2019).
