The Supervisory Board at Ajax has voted to keep Alex Kroes on as an executive, but only after he stepped down as their chief executive officer and executive board chair, the Amsterdam football club announced on Thursday. Kroes was suspended by the club after it emerged that he bought more than 17,000 publicly-traded shares in Ajax, a listed company, roughly one week before his appointment as CEO was made public.
