Feyenoord haven’t yet given up on signing Björn Meijer, Feyenoord Transfermarkt claim. Previously, the transfer fell through after the defender’s medical.
At the beginning of July, Meijer’s transfer to De Kuip seemed finalised. An agreement had been reached with Club Brugge for a transfer fee of around six million euros, and a four-year contract was ready in Rotterdam.
However, doubts surrounding the player’s availability ahead of the preliminary rounds of the Champions League led the Rotterdammers to pull out of the move. The 22-year-old defender underwent a medical. Doubts then reportedly grew, with Meijer not fit enough to play full 90-minute matches in August. In this case, Feyenoord also considered the transfer fee too high to go through with the deal.
According to Feyenoord Transfermarkt, a transfer may still happen. “Feyenoord are reassessing the medical status of Club Brugge left-back Meijer. The left-back’s transfer isn’t completely off the table yet.”
Meijer has been playing for Club Brugge since the summer of 2022, who at the time signed him for six million euros from FC Groningen.
