Shaqueel van Persie Joins Feyenoord Senior Squad
Shaqueel van Persie, son of Robin van Persie, has signed a long-term deal with Feyenoord, advancing to the senior team and following in his father's legendary footsteps.
Shaqueel van Persie, the son of former Dutch international Robin van Persie, is making waves in the football world. At just 18 years old, Shaqueel has signed a contract extension with Feyenoord, keeping him at the club until 2028. This new agreement also sees him promoted to the senior team, marking a significant step in his burgeoning career.
Shaqueel has been a standout talent in Feyenoord's youth academy, demonstrating exceptional skills and a maturity beyond his years. His rise mirrors that of his father, who began his professional career at Feyenoord and went on to become one of the most iconic players in football, with stints at Arsenal, Manchester United, and Fenerbahce.
Standing tall at 186 cm, Shaqueel plays as a central forward, a position where his technical abilities, vision, and finishing have drawn comparisons to Robin van Persie during his prime. His promotion to the first team is seen as a natural progression, given his performances and potential.
Robin van Persie, now the head coach of Heerenveen, attended the contract signing alongside his wife. The family shared their pride and excitement as Shaqueel embarked on this new chapter. Robin's own journey with Feyenoord, which began in 2001 and ended with his retirement in 2019, saw him score 35 goals in 110 appearances for the club. It’s no surprise that Shaqueel has chosen to continue the family legacy at Feyenoord.
The Dutch football community has high hopes for Shaqueel van Persie. With his combination of talent, dedication, and the guidance of his father, he is poised to make a lasting impact on the Eredivisie and beyond.
