Patrick Kluivert set for Brisbane Roar role

Having recently secured his UEFA “A” coaching license, Kluivert will bring all his top-flight experience and impart some knowledge to the ambitious side.

The former Ajax Amsterdam striker will be working with head coach Ange Postecoglou where he will be working with the club's strikers as well as assist the coaching staff to help develop the club's young talent.

Postecoglou told the club's official website that the Dutchman’s visit will have both short-term and long-term benefits for the club.

"Short-term I believe this will help inspire the players to take their game to the next level," he said. "It's not often a player in this country gets to spend quality time working with, and learning from, one of the greatest players of the modern era.

"I'm sure the players will use every minute available to them to make the most of the opportunity.

He added: "Long-term it is about building strong relationships outside of Australian football and using those contacts to strengthen the club.

"We are extremely ambitious and we see Patrick’s visit as just the start of our program to build a strong club not only in Australia, but in Asia."
