Curaçao announces a new head coach ahead of the 2026 World Cup

Before the 2026 World Cup, Curaçao changes head coach

This Monday, Curaçao announced a major change on the bench just four months before the 2026 World Cup.

It’s a tough blow for the Curaçao national team, who have qualified for the 2026 World Cup. The Caribbean squad officially confirmed the unexpected departure of head coach Dick Advocaat.

The Dutch manager has decided to resign, effective immediately, to take care of his daughter, who is facing a serious health issue. In quick succession, Fred Rutten has already been appointed to take over the coaching role with just four months to go before the 2026 World Cup.
