Netherlands' Ronald Koeman's Contract Clause Allows for Barcelona Move

Nico-Jan Hoogma, the director of football for the Dutch Football Association, has said Netherlands manager Ronald Koeman has a clause in his contract that would allow him to move to Barcelona for a set price.

Koeman is a legendary figure at the Camp Nou, where he developed into one of the best defenders in the world during a six-year spell. He famously scored the winning goal in the 1992 UEFA Champions League final for the Blaugrana too.

Given his affinity with the Catalan giants, Koeman has been frequently linked with a move to his former club. Hoogma said he hopes the 56-year-old will stay in his position for a while yet, but acknowledged the former centre-back would like to work at Barcelona in the future, per FOX Sports (h/t Goal).
