Cato Pijnacker Hordijk about her time at ADO Den Haag Vrouwen: “I decided to leave the club with a smile and a tear. As a true Hagenean, I am extremely proud that I was able to play for this club. I look back on my time here with great gratitude and am grateful to my teammates and staff for everything we have experienced together. From a sporting point of view, I have always had the ambition to one day play abroad. That opportunity has now presented itself and I feel that the moment has come to play abroad. to embark on a new adventure. To all fans and everyone within the club: thank you very much!”
ADO Den Haag thanks Cato for the beautiful seasons in yellow-green and wishes her good luck with her new step in her football career.
