At the time, the basis for the latter revival was laid in a garage box, hidden deep in the Overvecht district further away. From the outside it looks like an average industrial site, but in a corner Jordy Best has built a football field of artificial grass in his shed.
It is a mini oasis between all the steel and concrete, with life-size photos of Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Ronaldinho, Ronald Koeman and Johan Cruijff on the wall. Ihattaren has yet to earn his spot in that hall of fame, starting by taking some damage there over the next few weeks.
Like Ihattaren, Best is a real Utrecht boy. Stopped playing football early, but still active in the world as an individual coach. Loved by professionals from the region, also to give them a little push when they need it.
And so Ihattaren suddenly reports again on Tuesday, initially cautiously with a message.
Rumors debunked
The elusive is far from finished with the left leg, who suddenly appears at Best’s door two days later. It’s already a quarter to ten in the evening, but Ihattaren feels like going out on the field. He immediately suppresses the rumors of an end of his career.
