Feyenoord performance and squad updates

Overview

Feyenoord has experienced a strong start to the season, highlighted by individual and team successes in the Eredivisie.

Midfielder Gjivai Zechiël has maintained exceptional form, securing the EuroJackpot player of the month award for September. This marks his second consecutive monthly title following his August award. During September, Zechiël started all four matches, contributing goals and assists against N.E.C. Nijmegen, PEC Zwolle, and FC Utrecht. Zechiël’s club performance has translated to the international stage, where he recently made his debut for the Netherlands national team. Former international Ruud Gullit commented on the midfielder’s transition, noting that while he initially doubted Zechiël’s readiness for the international level, the player’s ability to play with “confidence and composure” during substitute appearances was impressive.

In a historic achievement, Feyenoord became the first club to win all three Eredivisie monthly awards in a single month for September. The honors included Anis Hadj Moussa as Player of the Month, Givairo Read as Johan Cruijff Talent of the Month, and Giovanni van Bronckhorst as Rinus Michels Coach of the Month. Hadj Moussa’s recognition followed a period of scoring four goals in two matches against PEC Zwolle and FC Utrecht; despite a failed transfer attempt to Al-Ittihad, he expressed satisfaction with remaining in Rotterdam.

Other notable developments include 20-year-old right-back Givairo Read contributing four assists during the month. Additionally, Charles Vanhoutte has described his role as performing the ‘unglamorous work’ to support teammates as the club prepares for Champions League matches at De Kuip.
