The general manager of Heerenveen, Ferry de Haan, is annoyed at losing van Persie.
"He told us he didn't want to miss this opportunity. Of course we understand that well, but the timing is very inconvenient.
"We started a new adventure (in the summer of 2024) And we would have liked to have the season out together.
"We wish him all the best of luck."
