Kevin Hofland will be Willem II’s new trainer. That is what sources at the Tilburg football club say to De Telegraaf. He succeeds Fred Grim, who was fired last week.
For a long time it looked as if Zeljko Petrovic would return. However, the 56-year-old Montenegrin is going to work at a club in Qatar and could not get out of those agreements. The fact that Willem II offered him a contract for a season and a half did not change that.
Agree
Willem II was already negotiating with Hofland at that time and reached an agreement on Sunday evening.
Hofland was most recently active as a trainer at Wolfsburg in Germany, as an assistant to Mark van Bommel. Before that, he was assistant and head coach of Fortuna Sittard and trained the youth of PSV.
