After the Dutch manager crossed him out of the national team and slammed him for moving to Saudi Arabia, it didn't take Bergwijn long to answer

The public war between Ronald Koeman and Steven Bergwijn does not end! Days after the Netherlands boss explained that the national team's doors were closed for the 26-year-old, the player decided to respond harshly and share his side of the story, trashing the experienced tactician in an interview for the Dutch De Telegraaf.

"I don't even want to play under Koeman anymore. I won't play for someone who portrays me like he has done in the media. He could have called me, heard my side of the story. How can he say such things without talking to me? If he had been a committed national coach, he would have called me first. Now I had to hear about it on TV.

Moreover, he sent a message to the 61-year-old strategist and warned him that he'd lose credibility, reminding the public of Brian Brobbey's case.

"He had previously publicly expressed an opinion about Brobbey, which was also not nice and which he later said was not smart. That is not how you treat your own players. If he continues like this, he will lose all his credibility," he said.

Finally, Bergwijn also referred to Koeman's comment that the winger's decision to opt for the Saudi Al-Ittihad was based solely on financial and not sporting factors.

"It is a golden opportunity in terms of sport and finance. With a salary that I could never have dreamed of earning as a little boy. "I can assure him [Koeman] that the competition in Saudi Arabia is better than the one in the Netherlands," concluded Bergwijn.
