Feyenoord announced on the 11th (Korea Standard Time) that it had terminated the contract under mutual agreement with Friske. Coach Friske, who took the helm of Feyenoord in June last year, will leave the team in just over eight months. Lucas Babarola Anderson and coach Byon Hambury are also leaving the team.
Grades were the problem.
Feyenoord was selected as the favorite along with Ajax and PSV Eindhoven this season. In the European Champions League, they reached the round of 16, but in Eredivisie, they are in fifth place, 12 points behind the leader Ajax. He broke his three-game losing streak with a 3-0 victory over Rotterdam in the Derby on the 9th, but whether he will play in the European Grand Prix next season is in the fog. Feyenoord Director Dennis Decloset said, "Fyenoord has made an impressive achievement in the UCL with Friske. Unfortunately, the team's structural development is too small.", he pointed out.
With Friske's departure, attention has also been paid to Hwang In-beom's position.
Hwang In-beom, who joined Feyenoord ahead of this season, has established himself as the main player under Friske. He started all 13 games in the Eredivisie and seven in the European Champions League. Except for injuries in the middle of the season, he has always been in Friske's lineup.
As Feyenoord cited 'structural development Mimi' as one of the reasons for the replacement of Friske, the next head coach is likely to make changes to the squad operation. If this happens, Hwang In-beom will also inevitably compete for zero bases.
