As if he never left: Justin Xavi Simons returns
Some transfers need a press campaign. This one needed a shirt with the old number on it. Justin Xavi Simons is a Cambuur player again, and the town has its story of the summer.

Rick Lang is a Cambuur player again
He left as a boy and has come back still knowing where the away end is. Most signings have to be explained to a town; this one needed a photograph and nothing else.

Some transfers need a press campaign. This one needed a shirt with the old number on it. Joel Simons is a Cambuur player again, and the town has its story of the summer.

Ethan Apkakou in the eights
