Feyenoord set to appoint Dévy Rigaux as Director of Football

Feyenoord appears close to appointing Dévy Rigaux as its new Director of Football. The appointment follows his announced departure from Club Brugge on Thursday.

Rigaux confirmed his exit from Club Brugge, stating that he will leave the club after securing the league title. He indicated that the timing aligns with his desire to pursue a new challenge.

He reflected on his period at the Jan Breydel Stadium with pride, highlighting the achievements reached during his tenure. The Belgian league title was the latest success under his oversight.

Despite his pride, Rigaux admitted that saying farewell to Club Brugge is difficult. The emotional weight of the departure was evident in his comments.

Club Brugge's recent championship underscores the experience Rigaux brings to any new role. His work contributed to the club's domestic triumph.

If the move materialises, Feyenoord will gain a director who has guided a team to a league crown. The Dutch side hopes the expertise will bolster its own ambitions.
