Graham Potter has reportedly turned down the chance to become Ajax's new head coach.

The former Brighton and Chelsea manager, 48, had been in talks with the Amsterdam club over a return to management and was a top candidate.

Potter has been out of a job since he was sacked by Chelsea last April following a troubled seven-month spell at Stamford Bridge.

However, Sky Sports News are reporting he isn't interested in taking on the Ajax job at the end of the season when interim boss John van 't Schip steps down.
