Patrick Kluivert hoping for managerial role

Former Barcelona striker Patrick Kluivert targets a managerial role in Spain as he builds towards his ambition of taking control at Camp Nou.

Former Barcelona striker Patrick Kluivert has said that he is targeting a managerial role in Spain as he builds towards his ultimate goal of taking control at Camp Nou.

The former Netherlands international assisted Louis van Gaal at the 2014 World Cup and has recently been acting as an advisor to Caribbean island Curacao during their 2018 World Cup qualifying campaign.

The 39-year-old is now targeting a role in Spain, but has said that talk of taking charge at Barcelona is far too soon.

"My goal is to find a club. Barcelona? You never know, but I'd prefer to start at another club," he told Radio 4G.

"Hopefully I can coach at Barcelona sometime in the future. That is and remains the best club in the world. I would love to go to work in Spain, with a good club. But preferably not at Barcelona."

Kluivert, who has also previously coached at Dutch clubs AZ and NEC, represented Barcelona between 1998 and 2004.
