“We are compelled to explain everything through a financial yardstick. Liquidity is covered, but next year so we will really have to make a substantial savings stroke. That is inevitable,” said CFO Gerald van den Belt.
Twente will look critically at staffing, also off the field. “Ascending contracts have been canceled and re-examined at the end of the season. This is true not only for the football business.”
“These are tough decisions to be taken, but financial recovery of FC Twente now have absolute top priority. “
For ambitious
The FC Twente were punished because the plan according to the license commission of the KNVB was not enough to get the finances in order.
“The plan is then drawn up ambitious. What could be accomplished in a year, also had three can be spread out. Then we had made it easier for ourselves and we were not ended up in this position.”
“We must first complete this tough spending cuts and find a new balance sheet. Only then we can start building again. We need and want to get back to normal. “
” That means we have to go back substantially in budget. A budget must be balanced with no transfer income and European football. “
Promises and women
The cuts will Jong Twente next season no longer play in the Jupiler League, but in the promise competition. Thus, the club will also relieve the dramatic turf in the Grolsch Veste. The women’s team will be housed in a separate foundation.
The KNVB strives to fill that vacant spot again. ” It is very disappointing that it comes to that, ” reported a spokesman for the association. ” Twente was just one of the clubs in the Jupiler League is joined to allow talent to mature. ”
The KNVB hopes as soon as possible to reach a solution. ” We are still open whether a team flows from the amateurs, or that another promising team added. That depends on what is possible. We went two years ago in the interest of the Jupiler League for twenty teams. That is the best, because then there is no need to sit one team a weekend at home. ”
Munsterman
Van den Belt realizes that hard times arrive for the club Enschede. “Especially now that we do sport by making a lesser stage, but we must take this path. That’s going in the next period are heavy and occasionally hurt, but we are convinced that it is necessary.”
Twente is working this season with a budget of 44.5 million euros. The club has been in recent years under chairman Joop Munsterman, who leaves after this season, moved up considerably in the league. Twente in 2010 champion of the Netherlands.
