The Eredivisie is only 34 games long, and doesn't have playoffs. So only 8 matches longer than the ALM. Sure there are a few Cup games but there are friendly of breaks, with winter, FIFA windows etc.
Thomas is also a bit of a legend at small club Zwolle, after his 2 goals in that famous Dutch Cup final win 10 years ago. If he continues playing, he'll almost be able to pick and choose when he plays to some small extent, ie the club will give him some flexibility. Plus all the medical/physio stuff there will know his body inside out, and be the best informed to keep him fit.
If he does come back from this latest setback it will be at Zwolle I reckon. Plus yeah it's well documented he is real Dutch family homebody these days. I think even his parents (expat Brits) ae back in the UK these days.
