Netherlands legend Marco van Basten has returned to the national team as assistant coach to new boss Danny Blind. Blind had previously been serving as Guus Hiddink's right-hand man but moved into the hot seat on July 1 following the latter's decision to stand down last month.
The former defender thus decided to turn to Van Basten, whom he served under at Ajax, to fill the void.
AC Milan great Van Basten had been working alongside John van den Brom at AZ but has now formally accepted the chance to return to the international arena.
