Roberto Martinez is among the candidates for the position of coach of the Netherlands

Spanish head coach Roberto Martinez ended his more than three-year tenure as head coach of the Portuguese national team this summer with a 1/8 final match against Spain (0:1). After that, the 53-year-old specialist was linked with both a job at the head of Scotland and a return to club football. However, the latest news from the Netherlands suggests that the Oranje, who said goodbye to Ronald Koeman after being eliminated by Morocco in the round of 16 of the World Cup, are also interested in this coach. It is reported that local football officials have already met with Martinez on a private basis in Malaga, Spain. If the appointment takes place, it will be the first non-Dutch coach to head the country's national team in nearly half a century.
