Market14 Jun 2027

Helmond Sport come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Groningen did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Market14 Jun 2027

Rui Mendes asks to leave Groningen

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

The dugout14 Jun 2027

Márk Csinger: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Groningen have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Wouter Prins attracts admirers

The name of Wouter Prins has come up in conversations Groningen were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Squad14 Jun 2027

Remember the name: Tygo Land

He is 21, he is averaging 7.16, and older professionals have started passing to him in the difficult minutes. That last part is the real scouting report.

Squad14 Jun 2027

Zinho Vanheusden in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Groningen this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Business is business: Rijk Janse goes

Go Ahead Eagles paid $470.0K and Groningen took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

Squad14 Jun 2027

Thijmen Blokzijl falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Door shut on Lars-Jørgen Salvesen

Groningen asked and Derby County said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Squad31 May 2027

Tygo Land is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 21 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Squad31 May 2027

A falling-out at Groningen

Tygo Land and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

One of our own: Teun Aké joins the Groningen first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Teun Aké is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

One of our own: Denzel Gakpo joins the Groningen first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Denzel Gakpo is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Groningen promote Robin Bergwijn from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Robin Bergwijn has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Squad31 May 2027

A row about effort at Groningen

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Dies Janse was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The dugout31 May 2027

David van der Werff gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

The dugout31 May 2027

When it matters, Tygo Land plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.
