Giovanni van Bronckhorst returns to Feyenoord as head coach

Giovanni van Bronckhorst has been reappointed Feyenoord head coach on a two-year contract, with a one-year option to extend.

The 51-year-old takes over from former manager Robin van Persie, who was sacked by the Eredivisie club after just 16 months in charge.

Van Bronckhorst was at Liverpool as one of Arne Slot’s first-team assistants, but left the Premier League club earlier this month as part of the Dutchman’s dismissal.

The ex-Rangers boss previously managed Feyenoord from 2015 to 2019, winning back-to-back KNVB Cups and lifting the Eredivisie title in 2017.

The former Netherlands international’s last managerial role was at Besiktas in 2024. He led the club to Turkish Super Cup but was sacked after five months following a poor run of results.

Van Bronckhorst came through the youth ranks at Feyenoord and spent five years as a player from 1993 to 1998, before returning for a second three-year spell at the end of his career from 2007 until 2010.

“When you’ve been part of the club since you were seven years old… yes, Feyenoord is a big part of my life,” he said.
