New ‘td’ Jacobs starts at Willem II with two keepers and ten field players | Football

sport">In principle, the latter applies to Wessel Dammers, who was hired by Willem II from FC Groningen during the winter break. With enforcement, the agreement was that the Tilburgers would take him over. Due to the relegation, that condition has lapsed.

sport">Emil Bergström ended up on the bench with Willem II. He was rented from FC Utrecht and will have to report there again. Goalkeeper Timon Wellenreuther, who did make a good impression, is owned by Anderlecht. Options to buy were included in the leases with Nikos Michelis (AC Milan) and Godfried Roemeratoe. They were not lifted by the Tilburg club. The contracts with Kilian Ludewig (Red Bull Salzburg) and striker Argyris Kampetsis (Panathinaikos) are also ending.

Build a new squad

sport">Ché Nunnely is among the players with an expiring contract. He suffered a serious injury to his right knee in the final phase of the season. A transfer is probably not in it. In addition to Freek Heerkens, the players with an expiring contract also include players such as Miquel Nelom, Nasser El Khayatti, Driess Saddiki and Elton Kabangu.

sport">Willem II therefore has to build a new team. The contracts of Pol Llonch, Daniel Crowley, Thijs Oosting, Ringo Meerveld and Jizz Hornkamp continue. With Jorn Brondeel, the club has a keeper with extensive experience in the first division.

sport">It was no longer a secret that Jacobs would become the new technical director. He signs a contract for two seasons and has the ambition to achieve a return to the Eredivisie. Jacobs previously worked at NEC, the KNVB and Almere City. His presentation is Wednesday. Then Willem II will also explain the plans for the near future.
