Dutchman John van't Schip has been named the new coach of Mexican club Guadalajara Chivas.

Van't Schip was picked by compatriot and former Barcelona coach Johan Cruyff who has been serving since February as an adviser to the slumping club.

Van't Schip replaces Ignacio Ambriz, who resigned earlier this week after not receiving a contract for next season. Interim coach Alberto Coyote will coach the club until the Clausura season ends with Van't Schip taking over after that.

The Dutch coach had been in charge of Australian club Melbourne Heart.
