Middlesbrough connection takes Hasselbaink to McClaren's FC Twente

Former Middlesbrough boss Steve McClaren is adding his ex-striker Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink to his backroom team at FC Twente.

"Hasselbaink has long been thinking about a career in training," his agent Humphrey Nijman told Voetbal International.

Nijman revealed that Hasselbaink was even offered the chance of taking a manager's job in England last season.

"He was approached about a manager's job in England last year, but he eventually opted for something else - but he is seriously interested."
