FC Utrecht expected to announce Erwin Koeman as the new manager – Dutch Eredivisie news
Reports suggest that FC Utrecht are expected to name Erwin Koeman as their new head coach this weekend, as both parties have a positive feeling about the discussions held so far. The 49-year-old tactician is currently unemployed and looking to pursue his
managerial career in the Dutch top flight.
The Dutchman started his managerial career with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Feyenoord-c39258 Rotterdam the following season. In 2008, the 49-year-old tactician took charge of the Hungary national football team but was dismissed from the managerial
hot seat in the summer of 2010.
After the Utreg management parted company with their former manager, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 manager,
Steve McClaren, would be replacing Chatinier. Furthermore, Ronald Koeman was also rumoured to be another perfect candidate for the Utreg’s coaching http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684.
McClaren had a successful spell and gained his lost reputation with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Twente-c39233 Enschede when he guided the Tukkers to their first ever Eredivisie title in 2009/10 season. Meanwhile, Koeman – the younger brother of Erwin Koeman – has extensive experience in
coaching Eredivisie outfits, as he has coached top Eredivisie outfits such as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/AZ-c38571 Alkmaar.
Nonetheless, the management has set their sights on the former Hungary coach. Reports suggest that both parties have agreed upon terms and conditions, but they still have to agree on financial aspects of the contract. Regardless of the minor issues, the
former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Hungary-c2920 coach is the most obvious choice for FC Utrecht, as the Utreg technical director, Foeke Booy, earlier revealed that the 49-year-old tactician is their first choice to lead the side next season.
Many believe that Koeman is the perfect coach for the Utreg. The tactician emphasizes on youth rather than experience, which was evident in his stint at Feijenoord Stadion earlier in his career. With insufficient funds available for transfers, the Utreg
also have their emphasis set on young players.
Should the matters be resolved smoothly, Koeman is expected to lead the Utreg towards glory next season.
