“I wasn’t aware of the proposal because we have a lot of games, we have to develop this team, we have some problems with new players, so there is my focus, I need all the energy,” he added.

“The people at the club will see it and let me know when the time is right. And when the time is right, we have to make a decision, but it depends on the club,” continued the Dutchman.
“The current structure of the Champions League is good, but I think there will always be initiatives to make it better, to make football better. That’s life.”
