Former Netherlands international Patrick Kluivert reveals that he is ready to step into club management as he works towards his ultimate aim of becoming Barcelona boss.

Former Netherlands international Patrick Kluivert has revealed that he is "itching" to be given the chance to take charge of a 'big European club'.

The 39-year-old, who served as Netherlands assistant between 2012 and 2014, is currently the head coach of Caribbean island Curacao.

The former striker, however, is determined to move into club management as he works towards his ultimate ambition of taking charge of former side Barcelona.

"My ambition is very high. I'm really looking forward to coaching a good club - that's my ambition and I'm looking forward to getting the opportunity to show what I can do," Kluivert told Omnisport.

"It's frustrating to wait because my hands are itching to do something nice with a good club, but I think I can work quite well with players and make them better and do good things for the club that I will coach in the future.

"Of course my ambition is to be the coach of Barcelona. That's a big step from now, but never say never. That's my aim, to be the coach of a big club in Europe and I hope in five years I can be the coach of one of those clubs."

Kluivert represented Barcelona between 1998 and 2004, scoring 120 goals in 255 appearances for the Spanish giants.
