Routinier Mike te Wierik (33) returns to Heracles Almelo

Mike te Wierik definitively returns to Heracles Almelo. The 33-year-old defender trained in the past two weeks at his own request with the selection of trainer Bas Sibum. At Wierik, Heracles Almelo decided to contract him for a season.

Technical director Nico-Jan Hoogma: ,, The rental of Stijn Bultman to De Graafschap created room. Mike knows what his role will be and we know what we have to do with Mike. He has a lot of experience, can take the young players in the selection by the hand and can be there at any time if needed. ”

In Wierik played 162 league matches for Heracles Almelo between 2010 and 2017. Two weeks ago he asked the club management to be able to train to be able to prepare the best possible at a new club. From home and abroad there was interest in him, but when Heracles Almelo became concrete, Te Wierik didn’t have to think long.

“Heracles is the club of my heart,” said the defender. “From the first day I came in again, it felt familiar.”
