Vitesse Arnhem have confirmed John van den Brom as their new coach.

Van den Brom, a former Vitesse player, steered ADO Den Haag into the UEFA Europa League last season.

He replaces former Barcelona and Chelsea full-back Albert Ferrer as coach of the Arnhem club.

A statement on the club's official website said: "ADO Den Haag and Vitesse reached an agreement for the transfer of John van den Brom. The former Vitesse player is the new head coach for next season."
