Dick Advocaat (78) will still go to the World Cup with Curaçao. De Kleine Generaal previously announced that he would step down as national coach due to his daughter’s illness and was replaced by Fred Rutten. Because his daughter was doing better, the players and sponsors strongly appealed to him to return. This put Fred Rutten’s position under pressure. Due to all the unrest, Rutten has decided to keep the honor to himself and not go to the World Cup, so that Advocaat can still coach the final round.
