Curaçao rehires Dick Advocaat as coach for the World Cup three months after he resigned

WILLEMSTAD (CURACAO): (May 13) Dutch veteran Dick Advocaat is coming back to take Curaçao to the World Cup and set a record as the oldest-ever coach in the tournament’s 96-year history.

The 78-year-old Advocaat’s return three months after he resigned citing a family health issue was confirmed Tuesday by the Curaçao soccer federation, one day after Fred Rutten left the job.

“Discussions between (the federation) and Dick Advocaat regarding the further details of this appointment are currently ongoing,” it said, with “the aim of ensuring stability, clarity, and continuity around the national team.” When Curaçao makes its World Cup debut against Germany on June 14 in Houston, Advocaat will be seven years older than Otto Rehhagel was at 71 coaching Greece at the 2010 World Cup.
