Fredericus (Fred) Jacobus Rutten (Dutch pronunciation: [frəˈdeːrəkəs ˈfrɛt jɑˈkoːbəs ˈrɵtə(n)]; born 5 December 1962) is a former footballer and works as football coach for Maccabi Haifa. As a player, Rutten spent his entire career with Twente during the years 1979 to 1992. Following his playing career he also managed FC Twente, before moving on to clubs like FC Schalke 04, PSV, Vitesse Arnhem, Feyenoord, and most recently Al Shabab. He was born in Alverna, Gelderland.

Coaching career

Rutten has managed Twente (assistant manager, manager and technical director) and PSV Eindhoven (youth coach and assistant manager). In the summer of 2008, he took over as head coach of Bundesliga club Schalke 04. On 26 March 2009, Rutten was sacked as Schalke manager.[1] On 17 April 2009, Rutten signed a contract as the new manager of PSV Eindhoven, for the season 2009–10. During the 2009–10 competition Rutten's side remained undefeated for 39 consecutive games. On 12 March 2012 Rutten was sacked as PSV manager following losses to Twente (2–6) and NAC (3–1) in the Eredivisie and to Valencia (4–2) in the Europa League. The following season Rutten served as head coach of Vitesse Arnhem where John van den Brom had been head coach before moving to Belgian side RSC Anderlecht. Rutten left Vitesse Arnhem after the 2012-13 Eredivisie season, finishing in 4th place. On 3 March 2014, Feyenoord released a statement confirming they had hired Rutten as their new head coach for the 2014-15 Eredivisie season. On 2 March 2015, Feyenoord announced that Rutten had decided not to extend his 1-year contract, meaning he would leave the club at the end of the season. Feyenoord reached the knockout stage of the Europa League for the first time since 2004 with Rutten as head coach. On 17 May 2015, Feyenoord fired Rutten as head coach effective immediately after a 3-0 loss against PEC Zwolle, causing Feyenoord to finish 4th in the Eredivisie and missing out on directly qualifying for the Europa League.[2]
