Ajax coach Frank de Boer holds desire to manage Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur

De Boer holds Liverpool, Spurs ambition

Ajax boss Frank de Boer has revealed that he wants to manage Liverpool or Tottenham Hotspur in the future.

The 43-year-old was rumoured to have been eyed by both Premier League clubs when Liverpool were searching for Kenny Dalglish's replacement, and when Spurs decided to axe Andre Villas-Boas.

"Those two clubs are clubs that I think in the future I could be a manager of," De Boer told the BBC World Football Show. "I think the history of the clubs and what you can do with the team is my cup of tea.

"I'm not really thinking about it because I'm very happy here at Ajax. I'm not in a hurry to leave because everybody is still happy with me."

De Boer has guided Ajax to the Dutch title every year since he took on the role in 2010.
