Ajax's week from hell: A record 6-0 thumping by Feyenoord, their new CEO was suspended for insider trading, and they struggle to find a new boss... the Dutch giants' latest setbacks in a season full of them so far

Ajax's disastrous season continues to spiral, with a week from hell to add to their numerous struggles already during the campaign.

They are one of the most famous names in European football, and with 36 Eredivisie titles and 20 KNVB Cups to their name, they are the most successful club in Netherlands.

But not this season. They sit in sixth place in the league, suffered an early exit from their domestic cup, and struggled in European competitions.

In addition to the woeful results, they have been plagued with off-the-field issues too, including loud protests from the club's passionate fans, and a managerial merry-go-round since the exit of Erik ten Hag in 2022.
