Veteran Inter Milan Star Coy On Feyenoord Return Links: “I Can’t Make Any Promises” | OneFootball

Inter Milan center-back Stefan de Vrij offered a cryptic response when asked whether he’ll return to Feyenoord.

Speaking to Dutch outlet Ziggo Sport via FCInterNews, the 33-year-old discussed his future at Giuseppe Meazza.

De Vrij was part of Simone Inzaghi’s starting XI that beat Feyenoord 2-0 in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie last night.

It was an emotional return to the old stomping ground for the veteran defender.

But he left his homeland in 2014 to join the Biancocelesti.

Over a decade after waving goodbye to Rotterdam, De Vrij could return as a seasoned professional.

“I always gave everything for this club, and it’s special that they still show it after eleven years.

“I don’t know what will happen – we’ll have to wait and see.”

However, he confirmed he’d never play for another Dutch club.

“I won’t promise anything because a promise is a debt,” he added.

“My wife is not Dutch, so I don’t know if she would agree.

“But it’s clear that if I ever return to the Netherlands, there’s only one club I could play for.”
