According to ESPN, Bart van Rooij is being considered by Feyenoord as a possible successor to Givairo Read. Feyenoord is closely monitoring Van Rooij's situation. The asking price from FC Twente for Bart van Rooij is described as high for Rotterdam standards, and a price above ten million euros is an obstacle for a transfer to De Kuip.

Voetbalprimeur.nl reports that Feyenoord is interested in FC Twente's Dutch right-back Bart van Rooij as a potential January transfer target to replace Givairo Read, whose departure is considered probable. The 24-year-old, who is contracted until mid-2028, has been a regular in the Eredivisie for years and is regarded as a defensively stable and consistent player who could be used immediately. While seen as less spectacular offensively than Read, Van Rooij is considered reliable. Transfermarkt estimates his market value to be approximately six million euros. Van Rooij joined Twente in August 2024 and has 5 caps for the Netherlands U19 team. In the 2025/2026 Eredivisie season, he has made 13 appearances, scoring 2 goals and providing 1 assist.
