KNVB in panic after Koeman's departure
With Bosz and Ten Hag out of the picture, the association is looking at surprising names such as Reiziger or Hasselbaink.
Ronald Koeman has thrown in the towel as national coach of the Dutch national team after a disappointing World Cup performance, leaving the KNVB in a hectic search for a worthy successor. The association sees its first choices go up in smoke. Peter Bosz, a favorite for the position for years, and Erik ten Hag, the current manager of Manchester United, have been removed from the list or declared unavailable by the KNVB itself.
This forces the football association to look off the beaten track for a solution that can convince the fans. The rumor mill is now running at full speed with surprising names on the shortlist. For example, former internationals Michael Reiziger and Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink are mentioned as potential shock appointments who have little experience at this level.
