Luciano Valente's Feyenoord role may impact international prospects

Football analysts on ESPN's Voetbalpraat have discussed how Luciano Valente's current role at Feyenoord may negatively impact his prospects with the Netherlands national team. Valente currently operates as a hanging left winger for Feyenoord, a position that Kenneth Perez suggests is not ideal for his international career.

Analysts noted that while Valente enjoys freedom in his current role, it may prevent him from being selected for the national squad. Marciano Vink suggested that Valente's playing style, which focuses on through balls, might be better suited for a second 'number ten' role rather than the wing. The discussion highlighted that while Feyenoord coach Giovanni van Bronckhorst is not responsible for the tactical mismatch, the individual player may suffer long-term value loss if he does not adapt to positions more favored by the national team setup.
