Maduro backs Ajax hire of Míchel despite Girona relegation

Hedwiges Maduro expressed confidence in Ajax's appointment of Míchel as head coach. Míchel joined Ajax on a free transfer after leaving Girona.

Maduro noted that Girona's recent relegation does not diminish Míchel's credentials. He emphasized that the coaching appointment should be judged on its own merits.

Girona were relegated from La Liga at the end of the current season. The Spanish club's drop triggered Míchel's departure.

Ajax secured Míchel without paying a transfer fee. The Dutch side expects the Spanish manager to implement his tactics.

Maduro anticipates Míchel will apply his experience to improve Ajax's performance. The upcoming season will test the new coach's impact.
