Alex Grimm/Bongarts/Getty Images Liverpool legend Dirk Kuyt has expressed his keenness to stay on as manager of Dutch club FC Dordrecht, with his present contract expiring in the summer. Kuyt went straight into coaching once his playing career drew to a close in 2018, as he earned his stripes with the Feyenoord Under-19s.



Kuyt, returned to Dutch football, after a spell in Belgium, with FC Dordrecht last summer. The Liverpool legend revealed that discussions have been ongoing for quite some time, and with considerable progress being made, Kuyt hopes to quickly put pen to paper as he is enjoying his current role.

Kuyt has already achieved promotion in his short career, guiding Beerschot to the Belgian Pro League in 2024. The 2010 World Cup runner-up though will also have the following season in mind, when Beerschot went straight back down, finishing last, as Kuyt prepares Dordrecht for a promotion tilt and a protracted sojourn in the Eredivisie.
