“I put all my heart and soul into it. I am willing to fight and work for this club, these players and staff. I think it is possible, but then we all have to be like that.”

‘I will always be a fighter’
The poor results of ADO on Sunday led to a group of supporters coming to tell Kuijt. During the home game against Jong AZ (2-2) on Friday, part of the audience waved white handkerchiefs.
Despite all the setbacks, the 104-time Orange international does not think about giving up in his debut season as head coach. “I will never throw in the towel. I never have and I never will. I am a fighter and I always will be.”
ADO is waiting for a tough job on Friday. Kuijt’s team will then visit leader PEC Zwolle. A home match against Jong PSV is scheduled for the next round.
