Rijkaard to quit Barcelona
MADRID, May 1: Frank Rijkaard will leave Barcelona at the end of the season, a close colleague of the Dutch coach said on Thursday.
Jil van Eyle, who works with Rijkaard in a fundraising initiative known as ‘teaming’, said he was looking for another sponsor because of his imminent departure from the club.
“I work for Frank who has given me a lot of time to work on ‘teaming’ but as Frank will be leaving FC Barcelona in a few weeks my work with him will come to an end,” Van Eyle said.
Rijkaard took charge at Barcelona in 2003 and led the team to back-to-back league titles in 2005 and 2006 and victory in the Champions League.—Reuters
