Maurice Steijn, a 52-year-old Dutch coach, has been appointed as the new head coach of ADO Den Haag. Steijn made his professional debut in the 1993/1994 season with ADO Den Haag, where he played for six years in the first division. He later moved to NAC Breda and began his coaching career with the club's youth teams before becoming the head coach from 2011 to 2014. Steijn also had a brief stint as head coach of Ajax in 2023.

ADO Den Haag currently sit 17th in the Eredivisie with 9 points, 6 more than Willem II and 1 less than Telstar. Excelsior has 2 more points than ADO Den Haag. The club's recent 3-1 win over Sparta at home has given them a much-needed boost.

Steijn's appointment comes after a disappointing week for ADO Den Haag, who were eliminated from the cup tournament by amateur team Excelsior '31. The club will be looking to Steijn to turn their season around and improve their results in the competition.
