Spezia, decisive week for Zoet: sirens from Holland, but staying is possible

“We’re talking about it right now.” So from Holland, as reported The 19th Centurythey let it be known that at the moment the renewal of Joroen Zoet with Spezia it is not yet in the closing phase even if a couple of weeks ago it seemed that the goalkeeper’s agent Frank Schouten had found an agreement in principle for another two seasons with a clause that the agreement would not be deposited in the event of relegation to Serie C. However, the parties decided to overlook, postponing everything until after Spezia-Venice.

With the salvation achieved, Zoet has given a mandate to his agent to verify the position with the club also in light of two requests arriving for a return to his homeland, including that of Groningen who have just been promoted to the Eredivisie, even if at the moment the option of staying in Italy remains in the player’s mind with his agent who should meet again this week with the management to try to close the agreement.

Instead, he will leave when his contract expires. Petar Zovko who in recent years in Liguria has found little space, just three appearances in three seasons, and in January Gian Marco Crespi, purchased from Juventus, was preferred in the role of second behind the Dutchman. Precisely as regards the Italian, his stoppage, after the Achilles tendon injury in March, could extend until the end of 2024 with the club therefore having to go on the hunt for a second goalkeeper.
