00:00 I think a lot of people would probably like us to sit here and criticise the Saudi league and everything that went along with that,
00:08 but that certainly wasn't the case and that's something that I'm not going to do.
00:12 I've got full respect for the league, for Eddie Fat, the club, for the people over there who really made us feel welcome.
00:19 But unfortunately, these things in life sometimes just don't work out, in football, in life in general.
00:27 I made a decision as soon as I knew this opportunity was there.
00:31 I had to make a decision and the decision was this was the best move for me and my family at this time.
00:36 If anybody was offended or feel as though I've upset them, then that's on me.
00:41 That was my decision and I apologise for that. That was never my intention.
00:46 But I just want to look forward now and concentrate on being the best player I can be for Ajax.
