The 49-year-old made the move to Anfield following his own managerial stints at Rangers, Feyenoord, and Besiktas.Now, with Feyenoord undergoing significant restructuring following Dennis te Kloese’s departure, Van Bronckhorst’s name has been prominently linked with a technical director or technical manager position.According to De Telegraaf, the former Arsenal and Barcelona midfielder is aware of Feyenoord’s concrete interest but remains focused on completing Liverpool’s season before making any decisions.Crucially, Van Bronckhorst is said to be open to talks about a return to the Netherlands and to Feyenoord, though he wants a clear picture of what his exact role would entail before committing.Marcel van der Kraan reports:“For Van Bronckhorst, there would be no excessive rush, also because he is still busy at Liverpool with the end of the Premier League.”“Van Bronckhorst is aware of Feyenoord’s concrete interest, but at this stage does not have time to interfere extensively with his old club. However, it has become clear that he is open to talks about a return to the Netherlands and to Feyenoord.

But not without a clear picture.”“All those new leaders will work with Robin van Persie as coach at Feyenoord.”Additionally, Van Bronckhorst is also being considered for a seat on Feyenoord’s Supervisory Board – the club’s highest governing body.It remains to be seen what role he ends up taking, if any.
