Speaking to the official AZ site Van den Brom said, “I’m going to work at a very nice club”
“The overall picture is correct. AZ is a club that compete for the top places. With Marco van Basten and Dennis Her there, we have an excellent technical staff, with experience in many areas.”
“On Saturday, the team has made a good impression on me during the away match against ADO Den Haag. Thats something we can elaborate on in the coming weeks.”
