Although technical director Peter Bosz would not confirm, Feyenoord are already looking for a way to bring the Sevilla man back to the Netherlands, as Voetbal International magazine reports.
Loaned out to the UEFA Cup, Supercopa and Copa del Rey holders from Chelsea in the summer, the Dutch international of Moroccan origin has only played nine times since then because of a groin injury and a reported bad relationship with boss Manolo Jiménez.
Ajax failed
His outings had also been limited during his time in England and as a result Boulahrouz only featured in four of the Oranje UEFA European Championship qualifiers. Aware of his situation and also looking for defensive reinforcements Ajax tried to lure him last month, but at no avail.
A few weeks ago his agent, Rodger Linse, made it clear that the former Hamburg man is not thinking about going back to the Netherlands at the moment, with his mind set to success with Sevilla.
Bosz tight-lipped
“We’re in talks with several players, but we don’t know yet whether signing them is feasible or not,” Bosz told VoetbalPrimeur website. “But we are not in a position to reveal their names at the moment, as that may damage negotiations. The coach has indicated that we need a player in each line. And that’s what we’re trying to do at the moment.”
Feyenoord paid Wolfsburg 2.6 million euros last summer to sign an experienced centre-back in Kevin Hofland. But Ron Vlaar’s injury has kept him out of action since September 16, leaving only André Bahia as Hofland’s partner, since Van Marwijk has not yet handed 19-year-old Jordy Buijs his first-team debut.
