Former Barcelona coach Xavi Hernández has reportedly agreed to be the new manager of the Netherlands national team. This deal was said to be signed on Wednesday.
This appointment means Xavi will return to management and it will be his first job at the international level.
The Spanish coach is now ready to lead the Oranje after making an agreement with the Dutch football authorities.
Fabrizio Romano shared the news on X on Wednesday, saying, "Xavi has agreed to become the new Dutch national team head coach, a done deal.
"Agreement signed today for former Barcelona head coach."
Xavi built his reputation as a manager at Barcelona. He is known for his possession-based style, which is heavily influenced by Johan Cruyff's football philosophy.
