The arrival of American investors at Feyenoord has been cancelled. Feyenoord watcher Martijn Krabbendam was a guest in the football talk show De Oranjezomer on Thursday evening and came up with an extensive update on the current situation.
“Of course they have thought about American investors for a long time, but it has now come to the point that they are going to work with a Rotterdam group of investors who should help Feyenoord to at least get through the coming window well,” says the journalist from Football International. Also to invest for the longer term. Those are new friends of Feyenoord.”
Johan Derksen notes that Feyenoord originally intended to buy out De Vrienden van Feyenoord. ”They cannot do without friends from Feyenoord and friends on the Maas. No foreign party is interested in Feyenoord’s shares. They went to Rotterdam two years ago, but never again after that. It really has to come from the city and the surrounding area itself.”
