Euro delay sees Koeman's Barcelona clause pushed back
Netherlands head coach Ronald Koeman said his Barcelona clause has been delayed until 2021 after the European Championship was postponed a year due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Former Barca defender Koeman was in line to take over from Ernesto Valverde, who was sacked and replaced by Quique Setien in January.
Koeman previously revealed his Netherlands contract contains a clause that allows him to depart for Camp Nou following Euro 2020.
With the Euros pushed back 12 months amid the COVID-19 outbreak, Dutchman Koeman addressed his contract.
"The clause in my contract to go to Barcelona is for after the European Championship," Koeman said via Marca.
