He was supposed to stay at the club as the youth team coach, [6] however on 21 December 2011, it was announced that he had left the club. [7] Coolen took the club to court for breaching his four-year contract and was awarded $400,000 in an out-of-court settlement. [8]
In 2015 he was coach of the Aruba national football team for 6 weeks. [9]
In August 2016, Coolen left his post as Academy boss at PEC Zwolle to join Fred Rutten as his assistant at Al Shabab in Dubai. [10]
On 19 July 2018, Coolen was appointed interim manager of Rosenborg. [11]
On 11 June 2020, Feyenoord announced that Coolen had signed a 2-year contract with the club to become the coach of the club's new Under-21 team from the 2020–2021 season. [12] On 21 May 2021, Feyenoord announced that Coolen would become the new head of the club's youth academy. [1] On 21 October 2023, Feyenoord announced that at the end of the 2023-24 season Coolen would leave the club, due to differencing views on vision. [13]
