Rotterdammers have NEC midfielder on their radar

Feyenoord technical director Martin van Geel has confirmed the club's interest in NEC Nijmegen midfielder John Goossens.

The 23-year-old is out of contract at NEC at the end of the season and has been linked with a free transfer to De Kuip in the summer.

Premier League newcomers Swansea agreed a fee for Goossens late last month but the left-sided midfielder chose to snub the move in favour of seeing out his contract in Nijmegen.

Van Geel says the Dutchman would be a welcome addition in Rotterdam.

"He can play all positions on the left. We would like to have him," the Feyenoord chief told AD.
