‘Don Leo’ Beenhakker, striking and successful: ‘Boys, I go to the World Cup with Noord-Brabant’

With the death of Leo Beenhakker, Dutch football loses one of the most colorful and successful trainers. The Rotterdammer managed to push through to the world top as a football player without background and achieved great successes with Ajax, Feyenoord and Real Madrid. With De Koninklijke he managed to seize the Spanish national title three times, both with Ajax (twice) and with Feyenoord, he became champion of the Netherlands. This made ‘Don Leo’ the only trainer who performed that in both Amsterdam and Rotterdam.
