Dick Advocaat has resigned as the head coach of the Curaçao national team.
Idman.Biz reports that the press service of the Curaçao Football Federation has released information about this.
The 78-year-old Dutch specialist's decision is due to family circumstances. He had to take a break from his career to devote time to his daughter, who is experiencing serious health problems. He will be replaced by his compatriot Fred Rutten at the helm of the national team.
Under the leadership of Dick Advocaat, the Curaçao national team achieved a historic success, qualifying for the World Championship to be held in the USA, Canada, and Mexico this summer. The debutant team will face Germany, Côte d'Ivoire, and Ecuador in the group stage of the World Cup.
