Siem de Jong says goodbye to Stam after one year: ‘The best for the future’

Siem de Jong’s Major League Soccer adventure will be limited to one year. The six-time Orange-international signed with FC Cincinnati in February, but announced his retirement on Monday.

FC Cincinnati played its last game of the Major League Soccer season last weekend. Jaap Stam’s team lost 2-1 to Inter Miami, finished last in the Eastern Conference and will not play in the play-offs for the national championship. It means that De Jong – who came in in Miami in minute 55 and substituted in minute 78 – has played his last game for the club: his contract expires and will not be extended.

Via Instagram the former player of Ajax, PSV, Newcastle United and Sydney FC has already said goodbye. ‘It was a difficult year, but as far as I am concerned there is no need to complain about 2020. I will never forget the people here. Thanks for everything and all the best for the future, FC Cincinnati! ‘
