Manager: Ronald Koeman

Manager Profile

Lauded as one of the greatest attacking defenders of all time in a playing career that included spells with Ajax, PSV, Feyenoord, and Barcelona, Ronald Koeman has won six major titles as manager and is in his second stint in charge of the Netherlands, where he opts for a well-disciplined approach but he can be flexible tactically.

Scouting Report

Denzel Dumfries pushes on down the right at every opportunity and while it seems difficult to call him a right-back, he is one of the best in the world in doing what he does, which he demonstrated in helping Inter to the Serie A title this season. He had five assists in qualifying and looks set to provide more this summer.
