Ajax chief executive Edwin van der Sar has confirmed the club were aware of sexting allegations against Marc Overmars prior to handing him a new contract.
Overmars could be banned from Dutch football for life over the sexting scandal that forced his resignation from Ajax earlier this month.
The 48-year-old former Arsenal winger stepped down as director of football at the Amsterdam club after admitting he had sent obscene messages and pictures to female employees.
