Louis van Gaal Clarifies His Coaching Future

Louis van Gaal is currently serving as an advisor to the supervisory board at Ajax, which is actively searching for a new coach. However, he has categorically ruled out a return to coaching.

In an interview with Weekend, Van Gaal provided a clear response regarding his coaching future: “No, that time has passed. I am 74 years old.” He noted that his comments pertain to a return to coaching in general, not specifically at Ajax.

“I still receive offers, but I believe that we should now enjoy our lives. I can handle the pressures involved, but that does not mean my wife, children, and grandchildren can. This is essentially why I have decided to step away, as it places too much demand on my family.”
