Rijkaard to lead Saudi Arabia national team
Saudi Arabia’s football federation has hired former Dutch star and Barcelona coach Frank Rijkaard to lead the national team.
Rijkaard is expected to sign a $11 million deal in London on Thursday.
Rijkaard was fired by Barcelona in 2008 after five years with the club, despite leading the team to two Spanish titles and a 2006 Champions League triumph, AP reported.
