Ajax coach ready to reject overtures of Premier League giants
Henk Ten Cate looks set to disappoint Chelsea after telling a press conference in Holland that he wants to stay with Ajax.
Speculation has been rife over the past couple days that Ten Cate has concurred on a switch to Stamford Bridge, in a move that would see him assist current incumbent Avram Grant.
Ten Cate's agent Sigi Lens confirmed on Friday morning that
his client had agreed to join Chelsea, but it would appear he has spoken too soon.
Conflicting reports
On the contrary, Ten Cate has claimed that he is determined to win the Dutch title at Ajax, in the process rejecting talk of a move to England.
Ten Cate's existing deal with the Dutch giants is set to expire at the end of the present campaign and for now, he is content to see out his tenure in Holland.
"I want to be champions with Ajax," he told a press conference.
"But not every story that does the rounds is true. I am coach at Ajax and my position is not up for discussion as far as I know.
"Last year I came to Amsterdam because becoming champion with Ajax is my great dream."
