This was a special edition of our FC Afkicken Transfer Deadline Show.
This year, we didn’t have just one, but two shows! What started as a dream in 2016 has now become a staple in our lineup. Back when we began, there wasn’t a show like this in the Netherlands, even though we had been big fans of Sky Sports’ English version for years. Now, eight years later, the transfer deadline feels like a true celebration for us.
We host the show twice a year, both in summer and winter, and every year we take it to the next level.
This year, we’re incredibly proud of the results. In just two shows, we achieved some fantastic numbers:
- 140,000 views on YouTube
- 1,500,000 views across our social media channels
What makes us especially proud is how we fill the day with an amazing mix of guests. From current pro's like Kaj Sierhuis, Ralf Seuntjens, former pros like Bram Van Polen Mart Lieder and coaches like Sjors Ultee and Peter Van der Veen,
But also technical directors like Mark-Jan Fledderus, Peter Bijvelds and CEO's like Wilco Van Schaik (N.E.C. Business - NEC Nijmegen) and Frank Van Mosselveld (FC Groningen BV).
We also welcomed our media friends such as Sam van Raalte, Humberto Tan, Thomas Hogeling, Fraasie, Jerr (Broederliefde), Peter Kwint and Barend van Deelen Andy Kisema and Brian Soares Duarte, alongside our very own FC Afkicken team including Bruce Tol, Mart ten Have, Bart Obbink, Wouter Boerkamp and Nicky van der Gijp.
In addition to all the guests in the studio, we also spoke to more than thirty guests from all around the world via Skype. They shared insights on their latest transfers or the best rumors circulating in the football world.
The common thread among all these guests: a deep love for football. Add our loyal viewers to the mix, and you have a place where the entire football family comes together to talk, laugh, and enjoy this special day in football!
