    Calvin Stengs appears to be sidelined at Feyenoord. The 27-year-old attacking midfielder and right winger didn't play for the Rotterdam side in their first two official matches and was twice kept on the bench for 90 minutes by Robin van Persie. A move could be an option, and according to SciSports data, Celtic seems a good solution.



    Stengs joined Feyenoord two years ago, after transferring €6 million to OGC Nice. The Dutch international excelled during the 2023/24 season, playing a key role with 8 goals and 17 assists in 43 appearances. Last season, Stengs was plagued by injuries and only played fifteen matches, scoring once and providing four assists.




    Feyenoord made a splash this summer, bringing in numerous reinforcements for Stengs's ideal positions. They signed Sem Steijn and Luciano Valente as attacking midfielders, and the Rotterdam club also acquired Gonçalo Borges and Gaoussou Diarra, both of whom can play as right wingers. Three of the four signings have already played time this season, while Stengs had to watch from the bench for 90 minutes against both Fenerbahçe (2-1 win) and NAC Breda (2-0 win).



    Why should Calvin Stengs go to Celtic?

    There was already cautious talk this summer about Stengs's future at Feyenoord, which was reportedly open to a move. According to data from SciSports, Celtic seems to offer a solution. The data analysis firm's Career Advice Tool shows that Stengs has a Club Fit rating of 87 with the Scots. The playmaker would be a perfect fit for Brendan Rodgers's approach to play and also has the prospect of significant playing time at Celtic.

    Could be a shrewd signing, fell out of favour at Feyenoord but was class at AZ and started well for them.

    Don't think he's that quick mind you, and he's better in the 10 role rather than out on the wing.

    I thought we had a rumour there but this is essentially a data scouting tool suggesting he would be a good fit for us.
