10 Managers That Turned NUFC Down

3. Frank de Boer

One of the most recent to reject, or certainly distance himself at the very least, from the post of Head Coach at Newcastle in 2015. De Boer, once again, saw the need to remove his name from any speculation linking himself with the top job at St James' Park €“ with the Ajax boss€™ agent claiming he is €œhappy€ in Holland. Guido Albers also revealed that, although a number of clubs from around Europe had contacted Ajax about De Boer€™s availability, the Magpies were not one of them. Speaking to Sky Sports, Albers revealed: €œFrank has informed Ajax he will stay next season. Frank will not be leaving the club in the summer. €œThere have been many approaches from other clubs, not Newcastle, but he is happy at Ajax.€
