Hendrix decision-making choice for Feyenoord: “That club from Amsterdam, that is not possible”
Jorrit Hendrix is eager to play for a full Kuip. The midfielder, who came over from Spartak Moscow, played half in the exhibition game with Vitesse (6-2) and longs for more.
After playing in Russia for a year, Hendrix returned to Dutch soil this week. “I have to say: I really enjoyed living in Moscow. But when Feyenoord came, I didn’t mean to think long,” he reveals in conversation with the General Newspaper. “I have always said that a return to the Dutch league would only be possible at PSV or one other club. And that was Feyenoord. That club from Amsterdam, that is not possible.”
Hendrix knows what it’s like to play in De Kuip because of his PSV time. “Yes, of course that stadium is part of the little fact that PSV wins in Rotterdam, although as a PSV player I did win there in two seasons that we became champions”, the midfielder may have said. “De Kuip is beautiful, especially the moment just before you step out of that tunnel.”
The 26-year-old midfielder does not think that the PSV supporters blame him for playing in Feyenoord’s shirt. “Yes, a PSV player in Rotterdam at Feyenoord. That is possible, I think. I did inform some people before I would sign here. Guys, this and this is about to happen, haha. But PSV and Feyenoord are in my Avoid eyes, no rivals. That is different for both clubs with Ajax, I think.”
