Sipke Hulshoff has been named as a possible new trainer at both Go Ahead Eagles and sc Heerenveen. Feyenoord certainly grants the trainer of the Under 21 team a chance in the Eredivisie, but on the other hand will try to keep him for the club. Hulshoff has been working in South Rotterdam since mid-2021 and was associated with FC Volendam and SC Cambuur in the past.
“When he signed as the trainer of our team under 21, we already said: ‘if there is an opportunity for you as head coach in the Eredivisie, then nobody will stand in your way here'”, technical director Frank Arnesen said on Wednesday. a comment to the General Newspaper. “But we hope he stays and that he will assist our head coach Arne Slot next season with Marino Pusic and John de Wolf.”

The youth coach was already mentioned at Go Ahead Eagles last week.
“We will discuss this with him. Robin van Persie will mainly focus on the youth and try to obtain his highest trainer’s diploma in the coming period. We hope Hulshoff will stay with us,” Arnesen adds. Hulshoff has a contract with the promise team of Feyenoord until mid-2023. He did not have a career in professional football, but started training amateur teams at a young age. Should Go Ahead or Heerenveen continue, it would be Hulshoff’s first job as head coach of a Dutch professional club.

As a result, the board in Deventer has started the search for a successor, with Football International Hulshoff as a serious candidate. Heerenveen is looking for a successor for Johnny Jansen, who was fired last week. Former coach Foppe de Haan pushed Ruud van Nistelrooij, the current coach of Jong PSV, forward. He has a history as a player in Heerenveen. That also applies to Jon Dahl Tomasson, who recently left Sweden’s Malmö FF.
