Rick Kruys sets NAC target of moving above MVV
The NAC Breda head coach has outlined his priorities before Friday’s meeting with MVV, including fitness and the balance between attack and defence.

NAC Breda head coach Rick Kruys says his side’s objective is to move above MVV when the teams meet on Friday. Speaking on the club’s official De Bespreking podcast, Kruys looked ahead to the game while assessing the areas in which NAC still need to improve.
The discussion covered the squad’s fitness, specific development points and the balance between attacking ambition and defensive security. NAC did not provide further details from Kruys’s analysis in its written preview, instead directing supporters to the full podcast episode.
Kruys’s message supplied a clear short-term target ahead of the encounter. NAC’s official headline attributed the line “the goal is to move above MVV” to the head coach, framing Friday’s fixture as an opportunity to improve their position relative to their next opponents.
NAC enter the build-up after a 2-2 draw away to Vitesse. Charles-Andreas Brym and Kamal Sowah scored during the first half as the Breda side took a 2-1 advantage into the interval, but Vitesse equalised late on. The club described that outcome as frustrating after NAC had spent much of the match on course for another victory. De Bespreking is being released weekly during the 2026/27 season and features conversations with NAC’s head coach and players.
