Phone call last night.
“Have you heard that the Ajax crew are coming?”
“No,” I replied.
“Frank De Boer, Bergkamp and Overmars is the whisper. This summer, Wenger’s leaving.”
“New one on me,” I replied.
The tip came from a source who’s been reliable in the past.
Bergkamp always said he would come back.
My reaction: We can dream can’t we?
Frank de Boer (44) was a truly great player.
The most-capped Dutch international with 112 games.
No Dutch coach had won four consecutive Eridivisie titles until Frank took over at Ajax in December 2010.
