The Dutch national soccer coach Louis van Gaal assured on Monday that despite cancer he is in a good position to lead his country to the finals of the World Cup.

There had previously been doubts as to whether he would be able to travel to the World Cup in Qatar from November 21 to December 18.
Van Gaal on the mend
“I had 25 sessions of chemotherapy. Then I had to wait five or six months to see if the treatment was working. It has,” said the 70-year-old. Van Gaal said ten days ago that he was diagnosed with cancer in 2020 and has been receiving treatment since.
