Bergkamp: "It feels a bit like coming
home"
Friday 18 July 2008
Dennis Bergkamp walked around on
an Ajax Amsterdam training ground today for the first
time since he departed the club in 1993.
The former Arsenal-star started
an internship as part of the training course he recently
started.
As a former top player - capped
79 times by his country - Bergkamp was allowed into
the speed course for professional coaches.
"I have never worked in the
Arena before, but it still feels a bit like coming home.
I left Ajax and Holland fifteen years ago and now I
have returned," the 39-year-old said after the
first training session.
"I hope I can contribute to
a successful season for Ajax. All I can do is try and
explain how I see certain things. If that makes players
better, that would of course be quite nice."
