Feyenoord youth academy talent development

Overview

Feyenoord is implementing a strategy to strengthen its youth academy, Varkenoord, by securing long-term contracts for young players. This approach aligns with current FIFA regulations regarding player signings.

A key component of this development is 18-year-old attacker Levi Haps. After joining from Royal Antwerp, Haps demonstrated rapid progress with the Under-19 squad, recording eight goals and two assists in four matches. His performance led to participation in the UEFA Youth League and training sessions with the first team.

Following his development, Haps was promoted to the Under-21 team and signed his first professional contract, which runs until mid-2029. Haps stated, “I am enormously grateful to Feyenoord for the trust and the opportunity I am receiving here.”
