Furious, PSV midfielder Joey Veerman stood in front of the camera. After a turbulent week with the departure of trainer Ruud van Nistelrooij, Veerman was seen as the biggest instigator. That would not be right according to the midfielder, who has even been threatened. “I’m really, really pissed off.”
Joey Veerman was pointed out in various media as the person who was at the basis of Ruud van Nistelrooij’s departure. He would be dissatisfied with the trainer and his dissatisfaction would have leaked through his agent.
That is absolutely not true, according to the midfielder who empties in front of the NOS camera. “It was a really shitty week. I find it unbelievable that you are going to name names without any knowledge. I get threats and so do my family and agent.”
“It’s ridiculous what has been written in the media.”
De Volendammer cites an example of a photo of an ultrasound of the child who is going to fetch his girlfriend. “Then she posts a picture on Instagram and we get the most horrible comments towards us underneath it. I turned off the reactions myself because you get the craziest things.”
Veerman is really done with it. “It really is a shit world. I’m really pissed off. It is ridiculous what is written in the media. What some guests want to do is unbelievable.”
“I also indicated that what was in the media was not correct.”
The midfielder sent an app to Van Nistelrooij two days ago to wish him luck. “I also indicated that what was in the media was not correct.” It is unclear whether the former striker has responded to this.
