Slot drops Berghuis name at AZ: ‘Just as decisive as Steven at Feyenoord’

AZ coach Arne Slot discussed the development of Calvin Stengs in Rondo on Sunday evening. According to analyst Ruud Gullit, the left leg can follow in the footsteps of Hakim Ziyech: Slot draws the comparison with Steven Berghuis.

Gullit saw Stengs play for 45 minutes against Spain on Wednesday evening and enjoyed it. “He looks a bit like Ziyech, in his way of playing football. He also wants to give those passes. Come in, pass …” Ziggo Sportanalyst notes, however, that there are still plenty of areas for improvement for Stengs. “He has to grow, become more consistent and play at a higher level.”

Slot partially agrees with his table companion. “What I say to him every time: I would like to see him become just as decisive for AZ as Steven (Berghuis, ed.) Is for Feyenoord”, he says. “Because I think: if you are as good as Calvin is, then there must be more return, especially towards goals and assists. He had made that up for himself, but he started the season unhappy with his injury and his red card (against PEC Zwolle, ed.). “

Stengs is on two Eredivisie hits this season. On Sunday evening he played his fourth international match against Bosnia-Herzegovina: the 21-year-old Amsterdammer relieved Berghuis just before time.
