  • Number #9 in the TDF Top 50
    From being a small boy, I have always been a huge fan of both football and professional wrestling and at around the age of 10-years-old, I came across a monthly magazine brought to newsagents from the makers of the world famous Sports Illustrated all about pro wrestling. It was simply named Pro Wrestling Illustrated. It was a publication I regularly read as well as Shoot and Match weekly magazines to feed my football addiction. In 1991, PWI began this new craze that instantly grabbed my attention more than no other magazine had before. They revealed the 'PWI 500'. The 'PWI 500' section in the magazine listed (in rank order) the top 500 professional wrestlers in the world that year. Counting down from 500, this revealed to me many, many talents that I have not discovered as of yet. This was released every year, and still to this day is the best selling edition of the magazine each year. I studied and read and read over and over again that edition in 1991 and I came up with an idea. What if Match or Shoot revealed the top 500 footballers in the world? Thinking back to 1991, I used to love to tune into the 'BBC Radio 1 Top 40' show every Sunday afternoon too... maybe I'm a tad obsessed with countdowns. Anyways, reflecting on the idea, I thought about it each year the 'PWI 500' was released. As years went on, I felt that this would have grown into a hugely successful plan, gaining great recognition with people in the game, possibly gained its own award ceremony on TV with the emergence and exposure SKY Television in the United Kingdom was just beginning to give to the game back then.

  • ORTEC Sports Business Case – Scouting: Luuk De Jong (Sevilla)
    ORTEC Sports Business Case – Scouting: Luuk de Jong (Sevilla) Introduction After the 2018-2019 season Luuk de Jong (age 28) wanted to make an international transfer after being successful at PSV for five years. The objective was to find a top six club in one of the big five leagues (Premier League, Ligue 1, La Liga, Serie A and Bundesliga). Being the top goal scorer of the Dutch Eredivisie in 2018/2019 with 28 goals and having impressed in the Champions League and as a Dutch International (18 caps), several clubs showed interest. It was crucial that his next club would match his characteristic playing style as much as possible. As a young unexperienced talent, he moved to Borussia Mönchengladbach (BMG) (2012- 2014) and Newcastle United (2014 on loan). Due to injuries and a change in BMG’s play style it did not work out as expected for the tall and strong striker. It resulted in playing 48 games in 2 years and scoring 6 goals during this period, a career low. Challenge Learning from their earlier experiences at BMG and Newcastle, Luuk de Jong and his management team realized that one of the most important aspects of the upcoming transfer is the compatibility of Luuk’s qualities with the tactics of his new team. This would enhance the chances of continuing his successful streak at PSV and keeping de Jong in the squad of the Dutch national team for EURO 2020. Before making their decision on a transfer they requested ORTEC for a statistical analysis of the club and Luuk.
