Feyenoord set to make a move for Westerlo left-back

According to Feyenoord Transfermarkt, the Rotterdam-Zuid natives are set to approach KVC Westerlo for left-back Jordan Bos. The club have prepared an offer for the 22-year-old Australian international ready to be submitted in Belgium.

The half-Dutch has a link to De Kuip (childhood shirt pictured below). However, the defender is currently injured with a hamstring issue, and this has Feyenoord assessing the feasibility of alternatives.

One of these alternatives reportedly โ€œmust come from a league outside the EUโ€. Feyenoord are weighing up the options, as they want the new left-back to be quickly deployable for the early stages of the Champions League Preliminary rounds.

Previously, Robin van Persieโ€™s side turned down a move for Club Bruggeโ€™s Bjorn Meijer despite a successful medical. Questions arose surrounding the playerโ€™s immediate availability for said early European fixtures, and Feyenoord decided to cancel the transfer.

Another option was a loan move for Romaโ€™s Anass Salah-Eddine. According to insiders, the player had initial conversations with head coach Van Persie, but now it seems Feyenoord are going down a different route.
