Of course, De Klassieker is central tonight on TV in De Aftrap. Reporter Freek Jansen gives his opinion on what goes wrong at Ajax. But FC Volendam is also amply discussed, because the troubled trainer Matthias Kohler is at the table. He started the season poorly with four defeats, but is not despairing. “It will only be settled at the end of the season,” said the 32-year-old German.
In the broadcast, Kohler also discusses the departure of Henk Veerman and Daryl van Mieghem to ADO Den Haag. According to many people, the current Volendam could still use both players with their Premier League experience.
Jansen sees with increasing surprise what came out this week about Ajax technical director Sven Mislintat. The transfer of Borna Sosa from Stuttgart to Ajax has come under a magnifying glass, because Mislintat did business with a player agency that has shares in a company of which TD is co-owner. “The first thing you think: ‘This is done, this is not possible’. At the same time you also think: ‘How can someone be so naive or so stupid if it was not done consciously?’ There are a lot of questions.”
Kohler, who worked in Amsterdam for almost two years, does not want to go into too much detail about the crisis at Ajax. Simply put, because he does not know all the ins and outs. “It is important to know what agreements have been made. There is no point in pointing fingers. But if we have a hundred million at Volendam, I think you should be able to make something of it.”
