AMSTERDAM (AP) — Former Netherlands national team midfielder Aron Winter says he has agreed to become technical director and coach of FC Toronto.
Winter, a former player with Ajax and Inter Milan, says in an interview with Dutch daily De Telegraaf that he planned to fly to Canada on Monday to sign with the Major League Soccer club.
He told the newspaper that he “had a good feeling” after visiting the club last week.
It had appeared Paul Mariner, the former Plymouth Arygle manager, would become Toronto’s coach.
