Sjors Ultee’s smile was from ear to ear. Fortuna Sittard won again and then also by two goals from Zian Flemming. Notaben the player who was most interested in this winter break.
The 23-year-old attacker was not allowed to leave the Sittard club management this winter, even though there was an attractive English offer.
Satisfying
Flemming himself proved that he is indispensable in this phase of the competition with his two goals against SC Heerenveen. Trainer Ultee is grateful for the decision. “The club is now being rewarded by choosing the footballer and not the money.”
To compress
Flemming is disappointed, but has now gotten over the disappointment and sounds cheerful. “I want to move up as a football player and then you get such a chance, well. But it’s not that I necessarily want to leave Fortuna, that sounds so negative towards the club. I now want to do everything I can to get Fortuna into the keep the Premier League.”
Polonaise
Flemming hopes this win is a tipping point. “We are not running the polonaise now that we have three points. But I do hope that this is a basis to build towards the coming games.” Fortuna will play the away match against FC Groningen next Saturday and the following week at home against Sparta.
