Patrick Kluivert (48) can be the coach of the national team Indonesiaas confirmed to ‘NOS’ by the agent of the former Dutch footballer from FC Barcelona and Valencia, among others. Kluivert is in talks with the Asian nation’s football association to succeed the sacked Shin Tae-yong, who was sacked on Monday “We are talking, but nothing has been signed yet.”
Shin has been the national coach of the Asian country since the beginning of 2020. Since then he has managed 57 games, with a record of 26 wins, 14 draws and 17 losses. Kluivert will be committed until the 2026 World Cup “We see the need for a leader who can better implement our strategies, communicate better with the players and better implement the programs of the national team ,” said the president of the association, Erick Thohir in a. conference.
Thohir added that the association has three coaches in mind to succeed Shin and one of them is Kluivert, who has little coaching experience. The replacement could be officially announced on January 12. Indonesia is currently third in Group C of the Asian World Cup qualification, meaning it still has a chance to participate in the 2026 World Cup.
