Johannes "Johan/Jan" Boskamp (born 21 October 1948) is a Dutch former football player and manager.
He played the majority of his career for hometown club
RWDM, and managed primarily in the Belgian leagues. Currently, he is a regular sports commentator
on two Dutch and Belgian football television programs. He is commonly addressed as "Jan" in the Netherlands and "Johan" in Belgium.
Playing career
Club
His former clubs as a player include RVV HOV,
R.W.D. Molenbeek (with whom he won the Belgian First Division in 1975) and Lierse. Boskamp was furthermore voted Belgian Golden Shoe
winner in 1975.
International
He was part of the Dutch team for the 1978 FIFA World Cup, making one substitute appearance against Scotland.[1] He also won the 1970 Intercontinental Cup with Feyenoord.
Coaching career
Later, Boskamp became a manager, and coached
Kazma.[2]
He became manager of English side
Mamady Sidibe, Peter Sweeney and Luke Chadwick. He also broke the club record transfer fee with a £950,000 signing of Standard Liège striker Sambégou Bangoura. However, results were often poor, and after a number of heavy home defeats to Watford, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Cardiff City, supporters began asking questions. Bangoura then went on a good run of form scoring seven goals in six matches, as Stoke won six matches in November and December to give them a platform to build on going into the new year.[4] But, in one of those wins away at Coventry City, Boskamp and his assistant Jan de Koning and director of football John Rudge were involved in an argument, which led to Boskamp almost resigning.[4][5]
Stoke began 2006 in terrible form, winning just one match in ten, and scoring a mere six goals in that time.[4] Bangoura had been away on international duty with Guinea, and failed to return to the club at the agreed date, which caused the shortage of goals; with Stoke's season fizzling out, with no chance of promotion, Boskamp was not offered a new contract by Gunnar Gíslason.[6] With the Icelandic board failing to gain promotion to the Premier League, and with debts now at around £5 million, chairman Gunnar Gíslason put the club up for sale, and he sold the club back to former chairman Peter Coates.[7][8] Coates then re-appointed Tony Pulis as manager, who had spent the season with Plymouth Argyle.[9]
Boskamp was then briefly manager at
Dender after an argument with his coaching assistant Patrick Asselman, who was subsequently named as his replacement.[11]
In June 2009, Boskamp signed with
