Netherlands coach Ronald Koeman was admitted to hospital with a heart problem on Sunday, De Telegraaf reported.

Koeman's wife, Bartina, told the Dutch newspaper that the 57-year-old was taken from his home by ambulance but after surgical intervention was in a stable condition.

Koeman's agent, Rob Jansen, told Dutch national broadcaster NOS that the coach is expected to be released from hospital on Monday.

Koeman has been charge for a little over two years, reviving the fortunes of the Oranje and helping the country qualify for Euro 2020, which has been postponed to next year due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The former international defender, who as a player won the European Cup with both PSV Eindhoven and Barcelona, managed Everton before he took charge of his national team.
