Mexico striker Santiago Giménez has made the decision to remain at Feyenoord despite a second bid from Premier League side Nottingham Forest falling through. The source revealed that after weeks of negotiations, Giménez personally turned down the offer from Forest, indicating his commitment to the Dutch club.
It is worth noting that Bundesliga champions Bayer Leverkusen also showed interest in acquiring Giménez. However, with only three days left in the summer transfer window, it seems that the striker will be staying at Feyenoord for the foreseeable future.
Giménez joined Feyenoord from Liga MX’s Cruz Azul in July 2022 and quickly established himself as a key player in the team. In his first season, he secured a spot in the starting XI and scored an impressive 23 goals in 45 games across all competitions. This performance helped Feyenoord clinch the league title, showcasing Giménez’s abilities on the field.
His success at Feyenoord also caught the attention of the Mexico national team coach, Gerardo “Tata” Martino, who called him up to the national team. With 30 international caps to his name, Giménez has proven himself both domestically and on the international stage.
While the offer from Nottingham Forest and interest from Bayer Leverkusen may have tempted Giménez to consider a move, his decision to stay at Feyenoord indicates his dedication to the club. With the opportunity to compete in the Champions League, it seems that the striker is committed to helping Feyenoord achieve further success in the upcoming season.
Santiago Giménez’s future at Feyenoord looks promising as he continues to make a significant impact both on and off the field. His decision to decline offers from top clubs demonstrates his loyalty and ambition to succeed with the Dutch side. As the new season approaches, all eyes will be on Giménez to see how he helps lead Feyenoord to continued success.
