According to the head coach of the Netherlands national team, which will become the first rival of our national team at UEFA EURO 2020, Ronald Cuman, the resignation of his closest aide was a complete surprise.

About this reports the official site of the Royal Football Union of the Netherlands.

The decision to resign was made by Ronald Kuman's assistant Keys van Vonderen, who joined the team in the spring of 2018, literally immediately after the draw for the Euro 2020 final. The specialist explained his step simply: "As an assistant, I do not feel the opportunity to fully realize my coaching potential."

"Of course, it's a pity that Keys is leaving us at such an important moment," the KFSN website quoted Ronald Kuman as saying. - But I respect his choice. Our next training camp will take place in March 2020. So my team has enough time to find a replacement for Vonderen. "

We will remind, it is already known that in March 2020 the national team of the Netherlands will hold two friendly matches. On the 29th the Kuman guys in Amsterdam on Johan Cruyff Arena will play against Spain. The leaders of the local football promised to name the second contender and the exact date and place of the meeting in the near future.
