Under the leadership of Maurice Stein, the Amsterdam club was having the worst season in its history.
Ajax have announced the departure of Maurice Stein. The specialist lost his position as head coach, despite the contract until the summer of 2026.
As stated on the website of the Amsterdam club, the parties have agreed to an early termination of cooperation. Remember that Maurice Stein managed Ajax only last summer, having moved from Sparta Rotterdam.
However, under his leadership, the legendary Dutch team showed its worst performance in history.
After seven rounds played, Ajax is in the relegation zone, occupying 17th place in the Dutch championship table, having earned just five points. The club suffered four straight defeats in the championship.
Ajax and Maurice Steijn will part ways with immediate effect. The club’s management and Steijn have agreed that the coach will step down from his position.

“The management of the club and I agreed that this was the best for Ajax, although I regret it. Everyone who knows me knows that I did everything to bring Ajax back to the place where this club belongs.
But I didn’t succeed. “I want to thank the fans and the people I worked with here and I hope that Ajax will soon be back at the top,” said the sacked coach.
We remind you that the legendary Milan player Gennaro Gattuso previously managed Marseille.
