John Arne Riise and Dirk Kuyt thundered on in the Liverpool shirt, after the end of their careers and with the transition to their coaching career, there has been less “thunder”. Riise is doing his thing, Kuyt is struggling to keep his jobs. Now the Dutchman is back in the pressure cooker in Istanbul.
Kuyt played for Fenerbahce between 2012 and 2015, and has now been promoted to interim head coach. This summer, the Dutchman returned to the club as an assistant coach for Ismail Kartal. Kartal was sacked two days ago after the loss to Galatasary, so now Kuyt will steer the ship.
