Overmars joins Antwerp in wake of Ajax misconduct scandal
ANTWERP, Belgium (AP) — Former Dutch soccer great Marc Overmars has been appointed sports director of Belgian club Antwerp only weeks after abruptly quitting at Ajax after admitting to sending inappropriate messages to female colleagues. Overmars relinquished his sports director role at Ajax last month and apologized for his behavior. Antwerp general manager Sven Jaecques says he did not consult with the female employees of the club before hiring Overmars.
