Holland manager rushed to hospital in Amsterdam with heart problem

Holland manager, Ronald Koeman, has been hospitalised in Amsterdam with a heart problem.

The ex-Everton boss underwent cardiac catheterisation this afternoon after being rushed from his home to the hospital by ambulance.

De Telegraaf in Holland say that had conformation of the news from his and his wife Bartina.

The former Barcelona player had to have a stent (a tube that keeps the blood vessel open) placed in the vein as his coronary artery was blocked.

As he was rushed to hospital and received treatment quickly, doctors have said Koeman is in a stable condition.

There has been no suggestion his heart problem was coronavirus related.

Koeman was preparing his Holland side for Euro 2020 this summer before the Covid-19 crisis forced the tournament to be postponed a year.

All international matches have since been scrapped, with league across Europe awaiting the fait of their current campaigns.

The Dutch season was cancelled at the end of April, with the French league soon following.

At the moment, the Premier League plan to resume the season on June 12 and stage matches behind closed doors at neutral grounds – if the Government gives the green light.

Premier League clubs agreed during their video conference on Friday on a target date of May 18 to return to full training, with match days following three weeks later.
