Overview
- Rigaux and Eenhoorn held a joint press conference on Monday to announce they will first analyse last season before making any decision about Robin van Persie’s job.
- The pair have already met with Van Persie and said they will speak to other relevant people to build a complete picture rather than set a firm deadline for a choice.
- Rigaux signalled a tactical aim of more dominant, chance-creating and goal-focused football while promising an analytical review of which contracted players should stay or leave.
- Eenhoorn highlighted Feyenoord’s recurring injury problem as a priority to investigate and warned that fixing underlying causes will take time and careful study.
- The review comes with calendar pressure from the Champions League place, an active transfer window and the winding down of Dennis te Kloese’s tenure, all of which could affect squad moves and the club’s short-term plans.
