Riechedly Bazoer has no complaints about interest. The 25-year-old central defender annex midfielder has an expiring contract with Vitesse and will leave Arnhem next summer after three seasons. Bazoer wants to get back into the picture with the Dutch national team through a top club.

Bazoer could count on concrete interest from Feyenoord and PSV during the winter transfer period. However, a transfer to the Dutch top does not seem to be possible next summer. Thanks in part to his transfer-free status, Bazoer is a popular target for various foreign clubs. In France, he is shortlisted by AS Monaco, Lille, Olympique Marseille and Olympique Lyonnais, while the six-time international is followed in Germany by Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Mönchengladbach and VfB Stuttgart. In Italy, he has put himself in the spotlight at AS Roma, Sassuolo and Fiorentina, keeping an eye on the playmaker.

Bazoer is looking forward to taking another step up in the short term. “I want to play for the prizes and make sporting progress on a personal level,” Bazoer said The Gelderlander† “There is a lot of interest and there are plenty of contacts. Clubs are also specific in this regard. But making a choice is also quite difficult. This is due to the luxury of the offer, but also to my personal preferences. I want to go higher. Towards the Dutch, yes. That would be nice.”

Danilho Doekhi left Monday for Union Berlin 1. FC Union Berlin. His departure seemed to be the beginning of an apparent exodus at Vitesse, as Eli Dasa and Oussama Darfalou are also leaving the club in addition to Bazoer. They also have a transfer-free status. In addition, mercenaries Jacob Rasmussen, Yann Gboho, Loïs Openda and Adrian Grbic return to their actual employers. Vitesse had the opportunity to sell different players in the winter, but at the time gave priority to the sporty aspect, as the Arnhem team were still active on three fronts. In the end Ajax turned out to be too strong (5-0) in the cup, AS Roma was the final destination in the Conference League and now has to get a European ticket for next season via the play-offs.
