Ronald Koeman is leading the Netherlands at a European Championship for the second time in his career after returning to his former role at the start of 2023.
Koeman was in charge as the Dutch were knocked out at the Round of 16 stage at Euro 2020 and he immediately left after the tournament to take charge at Barcelona.
However, the veteran coach accepted the chance to replace Louis van Gaal after the 2022 FIFA World Cup, with the Dutch fans offering him a mixed response ahead of Euro 2024.
Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk leads Koeman’s side in Germany as they look to avoid a possible early exit after a tough group-stage draw. They certainly started in a positive way, defeating Poland 2-1 in their opening match to claim three important points ahead of a meeting with France.
