Ronald Koeman has Barcelona clause in his Netherlands contract

Netherlands boss Ronald Koeman has an exit clause in his contract that allows him to leave for Barcelona, according to KNVB director Nico-Jan Hoogma.

Hoogma was talking on Good Morning Eredivisie on Fox Sports and was asked about the possibility of Koeman leaving for Barcelona next summer.

The director said plans have been put in place in case Barcelona get in touch, explaining: “Agreements have been made about that. They have to pay for that.”

The clause apparently only relates to Barcelona, and Hoogman also said it remains Koeman’s ambition to return to the Camp Nou as boss.
