FC Utrecht and Telstar jointly announced on Monday afternoon that Anthony Correia has been appointed as the club’s new head coach.
The switch had been widely anticipated, with De Telegraaf reporting on Saturday that Utrecht would pay 700,000 euros for the coach.
The newspaper reported that the transfer fee is 700,000 euros, a record for Telstar, whose previous highest sale was 375,000 euros.
Correia will be joined in Utrecht by his assistants Gertjan Tamerus and Robbert Michielsen, and he has signed a three-year contract.
