Leushuis himself tipped IJsselmeervogels about Knuiman, he says. “He could go to Spakenburg, he could go to Kozak Boys. Spakenburg wanted to bring him in just before the end of the transfer window last summer. I didn’t think that was very nice. I couldn’t get a new striker anymore,” says Leushuis. “I then called IJsselmeervogels and said that I had a top striker for them, but that they would do well to let him mature with us for another year in the third division. This level is new for him,” said the former Vogelstrainer.
