Because that's what he was at Ajax - and a promising one. Leave him to train the players, and handle the match day stuff. Back him by getting any coaches he wants in his coaching squad, and facilities he needs to be able to train his squad.
Then the club needs to back itself to put in place a great recruitment set up, which would bring in good players for good value for him and any future coach at the club to work with. Him or any future head coach doesn't need to get involved in transfers. The club should have a recruitment department that works independently so our head coach can focus on what he's best at. He shouldn't have to think about contracts etc. That should also just be looked after independently.
I don't think he needs to get involved with youth players. We should have a head of youth development, who's good enough to only make the right youth players available for first team selection.
As a club, we need defined roles and remits across the board to allow people to thrive and do the jobs they're best at. Backing them doesn't mean giving them power, that they're not capable of wielding correctly.
