According to Verweij, Feyenoord's director Dévy Rigaux and technical director Robert Eenhoorn failed to deliver in the transfer period. Verweij stated that Rigaux "has pulled off a massive heist on his predecessor Te Kloese". He added that Te Kloese had 40 million euros at his disposal, including the 25 million euros offered for Ueda, who was sold to Lille OSC for too little. Hull City had also bid 20 million euros for Targhalline.
Verweij believes that if Rigaux and Eenhoorn had done their job properly, Feyenoord would have had a lot of financial resources. He thinks that they made a mistake by not selling Read directly, which would have made them more effective on the transfer market. Driessen agrees, stating that the Vrienden van Feyenoord, who own 49% of the club, are the real reason behind the transfer issues. He claims that Eenhoorn was influenced by the Vrienden and refused to sell Hadj Moussa to Al-Ittihad for 40 million euros.
Feyenoord's next step is unclear, but it is likely that the club will face further criticism and scrutiny in the coming days.
