Marc Overmars was nicknamed ‘horny cousin’ at Ajax
We’re hearing a bit more from our Dutch bureau about the antics of Marc Overmars, who quit his job with Ajax after female employees complained about the 50-year-old sending them unwanted filthy messages.
You’d probably already priced this in, but we can confirm the messages included a series of unsolicited dick pics.
Apparently the former Arsenal midfielder was known at the club as “Dirty Uncle Marc” and “geilneef”, which means “horny cousin“.
By contrast, former club CEO Edwin van der Sar, was considered a “friendly father” figure.
But the former Man United keeper hasn’t come out of this squeaky clean either – apparently he knew about Dirty Uncle Marc’s behaviour for weeks and only acted against his old friend when the women involved threatened to go to the press.
