Feyenoord Strengthens Defense Amid Personnel Challenges

omidbasir- Feyenoord has strengthened its defensive lineup this month with the addition of two new players. Jeremiah St. Juste has returned to the club, and Mats Deijl has completed a dream transfer to De Kuip. However, these acquisitions may not be the end of the team’s recruitment efforts.

The pressure on Feyenoord is intensifying due to personnel issues. Deijl made his debut on Sunday against Heracles Almelo, contributing to a 4-2 victory. St. Juste observed from the stands as he continues to regain match fitness. Compounding these challenges, both Tsuyoshi Watanabe and Anel Ahmedhodzic suffered injuries, leaving head coach Robin van Persie already short on players in that position.

In their pursuit of reinforcements, Feyenoord is not limiting its focus to defensive players. Earlier today, Voetbal International reported that midfielder Joshua Kitolano is high on the club’s wish list. Kitolano made a significant impact in the recent Rotterdam derby, despite the team’s narrow loss to Sparta Rotterdam, suggesting his potential value to the squad.
