Everton manager Ronald Koeman still aims to become Netherlands coach at some stage in his career.

The 53-year-old was widely regarded as the favourite to replace Louis van Gaal after the 2014 World Cup, but the Dutch football association eventually opted to appoint Guus Hiddink
00001C0F
instead, who in turn made way for Danny Blind in 2015 following an underwhelming start.

Koeman left Southampton to take charge of Everton ahead of the 2016-17 campaign, signing a three-year deal at Goodison Park, but still has designs on the top job in his homeland.

Coaching Netherlands remains one of my ambitions, Koeman told Fox Sports.

January 13, 2025 0

Lyon have denied issuing an ultimatum to coach Peter Bosz, with the Ligue 1 giants also rejecting reports of captain Alexandre Lacazette making tactical complaints.

Former Ajax, Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen coach Bosz is in his second season with seven-time French champions Lyon, and last term saw them finish a disappointing eighth, therefore missing out on a place in European competition.

The dip in the early stages of this season has been followed by Lyon being closely scrutinised, and the club have taken issue with various claims.

They said a report of a post-match crisis meet…

The Switzerland-born Croatia international has started his fourth season with the Catalan club having spent as many at Sevilla and Schalke 04 each. Before that, he played two years for Basel.

Barcelona are understandably reluctant to part ways with the 30-year-old, especially after losing Andres Iniesta and Paulinho. Rakitić had a fantastic World …

´Traditional´ powers thing of the past, says Dunga

January 10, 2025 0

The notion of traditional footballing powerhouses is becoming obsolete, Brazil coach Dunga said after reigning champions Italy were eliminated from the World Cup on Thursday.

Argentina and Brazil are already under a lot of pressure, he said. We have to start evolving.
