    FIFA World Cup: Patrick Kluivert has officially been appointed as the new coach of the Indonesian national team. The Dutch coach was contracted for two years from 2025 to 2027 with an option for a contract extension. The 48-year-old former striker inherits a side that is still within striking distance of the FIFA World Cup 2026, with the Southeast Asian side sitting third in Group C of the AFC Asian Qualifiers.

    "The Dutch football legend has signed a two-year contract from 2025 to 2027 with an option for an extension," the Football Association of Indonesia said in a statement.

    After retiring as a player in 2008, the coach born in Amsterdam, Netherlands on July 1, 1976, immediately started his career as a coach. He started as an assistant coach at AZ Alkmaar, NEC Nijmegen, and Brisbane Roar. Then he became the coach of Jong Twente and won the championship title.
