Biography (wiki)

Mitchell van der Gaag (born 22 October 1971) is a Dutch retired footballer who played as a central defender and manager, currently in charge of Jong Ajax.

Van der Gaag was born in Zutphen, Gelderland. After graduating from PSV Eindhoven's youth ranks, he spent three seasons on loan to NEC Nijmegen and Sparta Rotterdam, returning to Eindhoven for a further three years but never being an important first-team figure, however.

In January 1995, van der Gaag moved to Motherwell. He scored a career-best seven goals in 28 games in his second full season to help the Steelmen narrowly avoid relegation from the Scottish Premier Division, and subsequently returned to the Eredivisie with FC Utrecht.

For the 2001–02 campaign, van der Gaag joined Portugal's C.S. Marítimo, going on to be one of the Madeira club's most influential players as it consolidated in the Primeira Liga. He netted six times in his third year, helping the team finish sixth and qualify for the UEFA Cup.
