FC Twente has undergone recent changes regarding its attacking roster. Striker Sam Lammers expressed frustration over his reduced role at the club, describing the situation as “bizarre” and “frustrating” after being relegated to third-choice behind Wout Weghorst and Lucas Vennegoor of Hesselink.

To strengthen the squad, the club has finalized the signing of 20-year-old Norwegian forward Filip Thorvaldsen from Vålerenga. Thorvaldsen has signed a five-season contract through mid-2031 for a fee reported to be approximately five million euros. 

Additionally, the club is pursuing Feyenoord’s 17-year-old winger Jerayno Schaken. While a previous one-million-euro bid was rejected, FC Twente remains interested in the player, though Feyenoord is reportedly seeking approximately ten million euros.
