“How did you even know this?”

It is not yet certain that Oranje Hélene Hendriks and Noa Vahle will temporarily boycott during press moments of the Dutch national team. Valentijn Driessen spoke on Tuesday evening Today Inside that the national team is considering no longer speaking to both Hendriks and Vahle following an interview with Georginio Wijnaldum during the recent international match. Wijnaldum is said to have been asked ‘too critical’ questions.

On Tuesday evening in Today Inside, Driessen saw his opportunity to say ‘something disturbing’ about Hendriks and Vahle. “I was with the Dutch national team, where I saw a great interview by Noa Vahle with Georginio Wijnaldum. Now she is in danger of being punished for it. The Dutch national team is playing with the idea of ​​Noa and Hélenot to boycott”said the reporter The Telegraph, which received support from Chris Woerts. According to the businessman, Vahle’s questions during the interview with Wijnaldum were judged as ‘too critical’. Vahle confronted the veteran with the abuses in Saudi Arabia, where he has been active since last summer.

Driessen’s rumor did not go unnoticed by Hendriks. The reporter from, among others ESPN and presenter of the program The Orange Sunday Wilfred Genee sent a message during the broadcast. “We just got from Hélene… How did you actually know about the story that Hélene and Noa would be boycotted?”Genee asked Driessen, who replied that he had heard it in the corridors. “Because Helene just texted that it is not certain”, says Genee. Driessen then made it clear that he indeed does not know whether it is certain. “But they are toying with the idea of ​​boycotting those girls.”

According to Johan Derksen, that says everything about ‘the attitude of those football players lifted over the horse’. “Asking the wrong question… That Simons, he’s also playing with the idea. He can barely read and already wants to boycott the press. You know? It’s too crazy for words”, Derksen expressed his disbelief. Xavi Simons refused an interview with RTL7 last month after a Champions League match between Real Madrid and RB Leipzig. The attacking midfielder did not appear in front of the cameras during the Dutch international matches. He said he felt unfairly treated by the Dutch press ESPNjournalist Pascal Kamperman. Arno Vermeulen came in Studio Football however with a completely different sound. According to the NOScommentator, Simons is certainly open to interviews with Dutch media.
