Dutch football club AZ Alkmaar says it has hired the Oakland Athletics General Manager Billy Beane as an adviser.

Alkmaar said in a statement on its website that Beane will provide advice “in the areas of high performance and innovation,” with the aim of closing the gap on big-spending clubs in the Dutch league.
