Gio Van Bronckhorst hits back at Liverpool hero for book on Feyenoord fallouts that 'didn't happen'

Gio Van Bronckhorst admits Liverpool hero Dirk Kuyt recounted stories about his time under the coach at Feyenoord that 'really didn't happen.'

The former Rangers boss was the subject of what he described as a 'commotion' upon learning the former Netherlands international had written extensively about his time at the Eredivisie side when Van Bronckhorst was manager. The former Liverpool star found the bench on occasion under the ex-Ibrox boss during the 2016-17 season in which Van Bronckhorst won the title at the club.

The 48-year-old, however, has hit back at some of the claims made by Kuyt in the book as he slammed the former attacker for detailing things that should have 'never made it to the media'. Van Bronckhorst was given his marching orders by Rangers last year after just over a year in charge at Ibrox and replaced by Michael Beale.
