Sem Steijn Struggles with Pressure at Feyenoord

Sem Steijn is currently grappling with the pressures that come with being part of a prominent club like Feyenoord. This observation was highlighted by Bert van Marwijk in an article in De Telegraaf. As an attacking midfielder, Steijn has not yet been able to replicate the significant impact he had during his time at FC Twente.

Last season, Steijn emerged as the top scorer in the Eredivisie, netting an impressive 27 goals in 35 matches while playing for FC Twente. His outstanding performance led Feyenoord to secure him for approximately 10 million euros, bringing the talented player from The Hague to Rotterdam. Upon his arrival, he was appointed captain by coach Robin van Persie. However, despite these high expectations, Steijn has struggled to make a decisive impact in the first half of the season.
