Ellen Verkoelen, faction leader and councilor in the city of Rotterdam for the JOU party (formerly 50PLus), looked surprised at the contract between the city and the Feijenoord Stadium. The city paid almost 12 million euros and De Kuip then stopped giving concerts in 2026. The agreement was terminated without involvement with the football club. “There are people in the council room who really hate Feyenoord,” she says in Dagblad010.
With the agreement, the city of Rotterdam has a free hand to build houses in the area around De Kuip, and the stadium can pay off the huge debts due to the failed new construction plans. So the built structure is just enough to pay off the exorbitant loan from Goldman Sachs and keep the stadium standing.
He passed Feyenoord
According to Verkoelen, Feyenoord does not receive a very welcome one-two punch. “So the city council is bypassing the professional football branch, which, unlike Stadium NV, has turned things around for the better. The 40 million that the city wanted to invest in the stadium years ago as an illusion turns out to be the value of only two contract players with a strong football policy. ” Therefore Verkoelen believes that it is unfair that the club is not involved in the negotiations. “The professional football branch of Feyenoord has long been able to fend for itself. NV Stadium does not. Because of her overconfidence and tunnel vision, she is still facing millions in debt and knows that De Kuip owns the Goldman Sachs bank.
Rancor towards Feyenoord
The city councilor suspects that the city has Feyenoord. After the Council of State ruled that Feyenoord City was an impossible plan, general manager Dennis te Kloese pulled the plug on the project. He was not considered for this in the offices of the town hall. “So they refuse to do business with the professional football branch that De Kuip wants to buy,” says Verkoelen.
