FC Utrecht have given new contracts to coach Jan Wouters and his assistant Rob Alflen to keep them at the club for a further two years.

Wouters took charge of the club in 2011 and has this season overseen a campaign that has them in the thick of the European race in sixth place, 11 points behind leaders PSV Eindhoven.

According to eredivisie.nl, the new contracts for both men run until 2015.

This weekend, Utrecht take on struggling RKC Waalwijk in a match that will pit Wouters against his predecessor Erwin Koeman.
