Although the club announced his departure, they expressed gratitude towards Kuyt for his dedication, commitment, and positive contributions during his time with the team. They also wished him the best for his future coaching endeavors.

Now, Kuyt is on the hunt for a new role, but his representative, Rob Jansen, has dismissed rumors of Kuyt joining Liverpool as an assistant coach. Jansen mentioned that it would have been a great opportunity for Kuyt, but the position will go to someone else.

It's worth noting that Kuyt previously turned down a coaching offer at Alkmaar, which he now regrets. He believes it would have given him valuable experience and potentially led to a role on the coaching staff at Liverpool, where he could have reunited with his former team.

In the past, Kuyt had the chance to work alongside Liverpool's manager at AZ and also spent a week with him at Feyenoord, where he gained valuable insights into the manager's training and preparation methods.
