Holland coach Koeman: Barcelona? You never know...

Holland coach Ronald Koeman admits he retains an ambition to take charge of Barcelona.

Koeman rejected the chance to return to Barca at the beginning of the year as the board pushed Ernesto Valverde out of the job.

He told Sport: "When I started my coaching career, I always said that I had two dreams: to be the coach of my country and to train Barça.

"Now is not the time? No. My engagement with the Netherlands remains the same. I will be with the national team at least until Euro 2021.

"Training Barça seems to be an impossible dream? Barça already have their coach and they are doing a good job. For my part, I can only say that we will see over time. This coronavirus crisis has taught us one thing, everything can change from one day to the next. We will see what the future holds."
