Season summary

edit

Pre-season

edit

Off-Season personnel changes began shortly before the 2023–24 season ended, with the appointment of Merijn Goris as the new general manager of the club, taking over for Martin van Geel who announced in February 2024 that he would be leaving the position on 1 July 2024.[1]

On 14 May Tom Caluwé was announced as the new technical director of the club, replacing Van Geel who was acting in the role following the resignation of Teun Jacobs in September 2023.[2] Shortly after the Caluwé appointment, the team took care of its first offseason priority by signing Peter Maes, the trainer who led the team back into the Eredivisie, to a new contract that runs through the summer of 2026.[3] The team further addressed to its technical staff by hiring Kristof Aelbrecht as assistant-trainer and Stefan Winters as performance coach.[4] Aelbrecht replacing Peter van den Berg, who departed to become the head trainer of the Netherlands Under-17 national team,[5] and Winters replacing departing performance coach, Nils Thörner.[6] Golkeeper coach, Peter den Otter remained with the club, extending his contract by two years.[7] The technical staff changes were completed with the hiring of Hessel Verhoven as video analyst for the club, replacing Rick Mennes who departed the club after seven years for a similar position with Feyenoord.[8]

On the player side of the club, the departure of four players: Max Svensson, Matthias Verreth, Freek Heerkens, and Michael de Leeuw was announced, with Heerkens retiring and the other three moving on to new clubs. In late June, the club signed their first new player to the squad, acquiring Thomas Didillon-Hödl to a two-year contract. Four more players (Mickaël Tırpan, Cisse Sandra, Emilio Kehrer, and Kyan Vaesen) were later added from other Belgian clubs.

Start of season

edit

Willem II kicked off the season on 10 August 2024 with a 1-1 draw against 2023-24 KNVB Cup winners Feyenoord at De Kuip, followed by the first win of their return to the Eredivisie, 2-0 at home over Go Ahead Eagles.

As the primary transfer window was running down, the club added a few more desired pieces in preparation for the Eredivisie competition: attacking midfielder Amar Fatah and defenders Boris Lambert and Miodrag Pivaš. They closed out the period by sending midfielder Max de Waal to VVV Venlo on loan.
