Santiago Gimenez is currently not complaining about interest. The 21-year-old striker has been associated with various clubs in Europe in recent weeks. However, Gimenez himself mainly focuses on Feyenoord. General manager Dennis te Kloese acknowledges that Gimenez is followed by a number of major clubs in Europe.
“It is constantly full of scouts who come to see him,” Te Kloese tells in conversation with the General Journal. According to the general manager, no club has yet officially reported to De Kuip.

The striker still sees plenty of opportunities to develop himself. “He has only really been in the starting line-up since the winter break.”
Gimenez has been linked in the media with SL Benfica, FC Porto and Brighton & Hove Albion FC.
