Speaking to Dutch television channel RTL, the 72-year-old provided an update on his health.

 

Van Gaal revealed that while he is feeling better, he is facing ongoing challenges.

 

 “My health? I’m doing well. After three years of radiotherapy, kidney infections, and prostate surgery, I am finally getting there. I can urinate naturally again, which is important. But I can no longer have sexual activity, and that is a problem,” he stated with a serious demeanor.
